Hi, This error is probably caused by a buffer overflow on the stack, which is what the stack smashing protection is there to prevent. It can be used maliciously in an attack, but it can also be a programming error, which is probably the case here.
It would be useful to get a backtrace, I think you may get one if you run under gdb. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace Also, the core might be hiding in /var/crash/ Thanks, James -- dvgrab crashes with "stack smashing detected" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197176 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
