Thanks for that Christopher...I have updated my sources and rebuilt, and sure enough it no longer crashes. However, I now find that the image created is the same size as the window specified, but shows the top left corner of the toplevel window containing it. To illustrate, here is a set of commands to draw a coloured canvas away from the top left corner, then attempt to make an image of it -- the image ends up showing the two buttons and only part of the canvas % info patchlevel 8.6.12 % package...

Nope, sorry. I just installed the wxGTK 2.8 libraries package from an earlier distribution, then the original build worked again. When the package manager complained that I could not have the two library packages installed side by side, I just removed the 2.8 package -- but kept the actual files. This is working at the moment but there may very well be problems in the future.

I recently updated my OS to one that includes wxGTK3. I cannot run the distributed auroramon any model because the shared library libwx_gtk2u_html-2.8.so.0 (and probably others) is missing. So I tried to recompile with wxGTK3. Compilation goes OK, but the executable crashes on startup: (process:24596): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 11:26:09.239: _gtk_style_provider_private_get_settings: assertion 'GTK_IS_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIVATE (provider)' failed Segmentation fault (core dumped) Before I get stuck-in to debugging...

Hi, I have a cheap RS485 to USB convertor, and if I start auroramon with port TTYUSB0 as the communication channel it works for a day or so then the port goes completely dead. The solution is to use socat to make a virtual USB port mirroring the real one, with this command: sudo socat /dev/ttyUSB0,raw,echo=0,b19200 pty,link=/dev/ttyAUR0,raw,echo=0 & then link to the virtual port ttyAUR0. Runs for years at a time!
