I have also tested upstream versions: http://www.lesswatts.org/projects/powertop/download/powertop-1.12.tar.gz -> also crashes http://www.lesswatts.org/projects/powertop/download/powertop-1.13.tar.gz -> works fine Here is the output of gdb backtrace when the powertop source was downloaded with "apt-get source powertop" and recompiled in order to include debug symbols: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0xb7e9a704 in strcpy () from /lib/i386-linux-gnu/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (gdb) bt #0 0xb7e9a704 in strcpy () from /lib/i386-linux-gnu/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 #1 0x0804cf30 in read_kernel_config (string=0xbfffe83c "CONFIG_COMEDI_NI_6527=m\n", onoff=1, comment=0xb7fdeab2 "Tanács: Engedélyezd a CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND kernel konfigurációs opciót.\nEz az opció automatikusan kikapcsolja az USB-t ha nincs használatban, \nezzel körülbelül 1 Watt energiát takarít meg.", weight=20) at config.c:80 #2 suggest_kernel_config (string=0xbfffe83c "CONFIG_COMEDI_NI_6527=m\n", onoff=1, comment=0xb7fdeab2 "Tanács: Engedélyezd a CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND kernel konfigurációs opciót.\nEz az opció automatikusan kikapcsolja az USB-t ha nincs használatban, \nezzel körülbelül 1 Watt energiát takarít meg.", weight=20) at config.c:96 #3 0x0804c6fb in main (argc=1, argv=0xbffff4d4) at powertop.c:1063 (gdb) q A debugging session is active.
