xf86cfg segfault, missing directories (?)
Hi... (disclaimer: I'm still a bit of a newbie in this area, so please be gentle :) What I did today: 1. Installed Potato on workstation (clean partitions, just essential packages). 2. Set up sources.list to point to unstable branch, did apt-get dist-upgrade, handled a few problems, blah... also set up sources.list to point to Branden's X 4.1.0-pre site (I have not installed X yet). 3. Installed the xfree 4.1.0-0pre1v5 packages. Everything was downloaded, installed, and configured according to dpkg. 4. Ran xf86cfg -textmode. When I got to the Card option, I got a segfault. 5. Ran xf86cfg thru strace, the last few lines of strace says: stat64(/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/linux/, 0xbfffda7c) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64(/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers, 0xbfffda7c) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) --- +++ killed by SIGSEGV +++ What part of the installation process should these directories be created? My setup is currently missing the drivers directory. TIA, Alan. -- alan at alangarrison dot com Tuesday is 'Human Sacrifice Day' at the Sizzler. - Joel R.
