Using the skins2 interface causes crashes almost identical to the wxwidgets code, down to the wxwidgets backtrace: lakeview ok % vlc -I skins2 VLC media player 0.8.6c Janus *** glibc detected *** vlc: free(): invalid pointer: 0x0000000000943840 *** ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib/libc.so.6[0x2b179a2ea99a] /lib/libc.so.6(cfree+0x8c)[0x2b179a2ee58c] /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_core-2.6.so.0[0x2aaaad0d6959] /usr/lib/vlc/gui/libwxwidgets_plugin.so(_ZN5wxvlc8MessagesC1EP13intf_thread_tP8wxWindow+0x524)[0x2aaaac2cb3a4] /usr/lib/vlc/gui/libwxwidgets_plugin.so(_ZN15DialogsProviderC1EP13intf_thread_tP8wxWindow+0x1ea)[0x2aaaac28cd4a] /usr/lib/vlc/gui/libwxwidgets_plugin.so(_Z21CreateDialogsProviderP13intf_thread_tP8wxWindow+0x34)[0x2aaaac28d2f4] /usr/lib/vlc/gui/libwxwidgets_plugin.so(_ZN8Instance6OnInitEv+0x7d)[0x2aaaac2601cd] /usr/lib/vlc/gui/libwxwidgets_plugin.so(_ZN12wxAppConsole10CallOnInitEv+0xd)[0x2aaaac2618fd] /usr/lib/libwx_baseu-2.6.so.0(_Z7wxEntryRiPPw+0x22)[0x2aaaad6373f2] /usr/lib/vlc/gui/libwxwidgets_plugin.so[0x2aaaac26041c] /lib/libpthread.so.0[0x2b1799bde317] /lib/libc.so.6(clone+0x6d)[0x2b179a34cbad] lakeview ok % vlc VLC media player 0.8.6c Janus *** glibc detected *** vlc: free(): invalid pointer: 0x00000000009cc480 *** ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib/libc.so.6[0x2aaf8d61199a] /lib/libc.so.6(cfree+0x8c)[0x2aaf8d61558c] /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_core-2.6.so.0[0x2aaaabdbf959] /usr/lib/vlc/gui/libwxwidgets_plugin.so(_ZN5wxvlc8MessagesC1EP13intf_thread_tP8wxWindow+0x524)[0x2aaaaafb43a4] /usr/lib/vlc/gui/libwxwidgets_plugin.so(_ZN15DialogsProviderC1EP13intf_thread_tP8wxWindow+0x1ea)[0x2aaaaaf75d4a] /usr/lib/vlc/gui/libwxwidgets_plugin.so(_Z21CreateDialogsProviderP13intf_thread_tP8wxWindow+0x34)[0x2aaaaaf762f4] /usr/lib/vlc/gui/libwxwidgets_plugin.so(_ZN8Instance6OnInitEv+0x7d)[0x2aaaaaf491cd] /usr/lib/vlc/gui/libwxwidgets_plugin.so(_ZN12wxAppConsole10CallOnInitEv+0xd)[0x2aaaaaf4a8fd] /usr/lib/libwx_baseu-2.6.so.0(_Z7wxEntryRiPPw+0x22)[0x2aaaac3203f2] /usr/lib/vlc/gui/libwxwidgets_plugin.so[0x2aaaaaf4941c] /usr/lib/libvlc.so.0[0x2aaf8c5ebe90] /usr/lib/libvlc.so.0(intf_RunThread+0x5a)[0x2aaf8c5ec04a] /usr/lib/libvlc.so.0[0x2aaf8c5e9592] vlc[0x400b90] /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4)[0x2aaf8d5bdb44] vlc[0x400a39] [memory maps elided] Using -I ncurses works beautifully. -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 713 440 7475 | http://crustytoothpaste.ath.cx/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
