[Gambas-user] Gambas problems with Mandrake 9.0 and Red Hat 8.0

[Lorenzo Morselli]

I just discovered that the segmentation fault of Gambas editor on my
mandrake 9 and R.H.8.0a was due to Nvidia accelerated drivers
v.1.0-4191.

I installed an older version (0.9-769) and now it works.

Here is the debugger output:

Starting program: /opt/gambas/bin/gbx
Preloading gb.qt
Preloading gb.qt.editor
Preloading gb.qt.ext

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

(gdb)



Also, i had to make this link to compile Gambas on red hat:

ln -s /usr/include/pgsql/server/catalog/pg_type.h
/usr/include/pgsql/server/

I hope this will be useful.
