I don't think you're missing anything. Don't know what the problem is, but maybe gdb does not load all the debug symbols.

[Mageia-dev] net_applet segfaulting
I use a UMTS card on my laptop - and use net_applet to reactivate the card (with PIN) when I awake the machine from sleep. From KDE - frequently when I click on net_applet to further click on Manage Wireless Networks - sometimes it disappears - After running it from the cli - I get: Cannot open /dev/input/eventX: Permission denied Cannot open /dev/input/eventX: Permission denied Cannot open /dev/input/eventX: Permission denied Cannot open /dev/input/eventX: Permission denied Cannot open /dev/input/eventX: Permission denied Cannot open /dev/input/eventX: Permission denied Cannot open /dev/input/eventX: Permission denied Cannot open /dev/input/eventX: Permission denied Cannot open /dev/input/eventX: Permission denied Cannot open /dev/input/eventX: Permission denied Cannot open /dev/input/eventX: Permission denied Cannot open /dev/input/eventX: Permission denied Segmentation fault So for some unexplained reason it segfaults and I have to start it again.
