[newbie] Signal 11 (SIGSEGV): Korganizer on edit of apointment
Greetings to all.
Our situation is this: We "Upgraded" our installation of Mandrake from
version 7.2 to version 8.0. Thus my current version of KDE is: 2.1.2.
Upon arriving at our destination upgrade, Korganizer will no longer allow us
add new appointments or change existing ones.
If I start korganizer from the command-line this is the data that prints to
the screen:
"
[mark@msp mark]$ korganizer
[mark@msp mark]$ QTime::setHMS Invalid time -1:-1:-1.000
QTime::setHMS Invalid time -1:-1:-1.000
QTime::setHMS Invalid time -1:-1:-1.000
QTime::setHMS Invalid time -1:-1:-1.000
KCrash: crashing crashRecursionCounter = 2
KCrash: Application Name = korganizer path =
[mark@msp mark]$
"
If I choose to do a backtrace I also obtain this data:

May i say you used the wrong word, you REALLY will notice that sig 11 will dissapier. I hope i'm not going to start a cyrix users flame session, but if we look thro' different list archives 90% of machines which have sig11 probs have cyrix processors. > Just a suggestion, perhaps worth checking out. A very good suggestion if i may say so. -- Regards Richard [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: [newbie] Signal 11
This is only my suggestion, as AFAIK there are several possible causes of this. I also was running happily for months when all of a sudden it started happening - about a year ago now so nothing to do with 6.0/6.1. I was running a Cyrix chip which i had setup according to my motherboards recommendations. On further inspection the chip had different settings printed on the chip itself. I changed the settings on my m/b to those printed on the chip. The change effectively used a higher multiplier with a slower bus speed - hey presto my problems went away and never came back. I think the Cyrix chips may already be overclocked, so it pays to set them up slightly on the slower side - you REALLY won't notice the difference! Just a suggestion, perhaps worth checking out.

Well excuse me but I am writing this using Groupwise since my linux box is now in an unuseable state and I am not aware of any way to set this - If anyone can tell me how to do it, I would be happy to do so. >Anyway i belive i can help a little here which is the only reason i >am repling, otherwise the mail would have been disregarded. >The most probable cause here is the cyrix CPU clocked at a too higher >speed. I'm pretty sure I have it clocked at the proper speed so that's not the problem. >I suggest you take a look at http:/bitwizard.nl/sig11 Thanks, I will do that. Arend

The MB is a PCCHIPS M571 with 64MB Ram installed. Now here we have one of those mails i normaly ignore and delete, the user has not set his LINE WRAP in his editor. Anyway i belive i can help a little here which is the only reason i am repling, otherwise the mail would have been disregarded. The most probable cause here is the cyrix CPU clocked at a too higher speed.

Hi all, I have a machine that has been running Mandrake 6.0 for the last couple of months. Yesterday I tried to upgrade it to 6.1 but I keep getting signal 11 errors. Actually, I wasn't even doing an upgrade, I wiped the drive clean and did a fresh installation. I seem to remember that Signal 11 errors always mean a hardware problem of some sort but I don't understand why it was working fine under 6.0? The errors are happening during the installation process - usually when it is installing packages. I have tried having it check for bad blocks during the format - that didn't help. Is there anything I can do or should I just go back to 6.0? It's running on a Cyrix MII/PR300 chip. IDE 1.2 GB drive (I don't know the make and model offhand). The MB is a PCCHIPS M571 with 64MB Ram installed. Thanks Arend teRaa [EMAIL PROTECTED]
