(y or n) [answered Y; input not from terminal] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ -- XRandR is disabled by Xinerama so this would appear to be the cause of the segfault. Is it possible to build torcs without requiring XRandR? I discovered a similar problem with MythTV recently which was fixed by using --disable-xrandr passed during ./configure See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mythtv/+bug/109227 for more info on this.
