Hi,

Segmentation faults are caused by programs trying to access parts of memory
that don't exist, or I believe that are read only or even being used by
other programs.

I used to get this when the machine was up for a long time and a good old
fashioned reboot fixed it. I know that's not a real fix but when your not
sure how to fix it and you want to get on then its as good as any.
