Hi All, I had faxgetty running in gdb, as I posted previously. In my case, faxgetty keeps receiving faxes, but "frees" itself of gdb. Maybe it is the same as Deepht69 describes in #69. I now started faxgetty without the -D option. I do not mind if it sticks to my terminal. We'll see if faxgetty

Giuseppe, I have been digging into the 6.0.5 code using the input Yaztromo provided with the SEGVIO he logged. And I would like to make two statements and have your view on them: 1. I found that the actual code on that famous line 950 is just if (log) { although this "log" could be a ha

Hi All, Thank you all for your input. I'll put a bit more detail in: The RTC means Return To Command (mode). What I know about faxes is that they start up and negotiate how they are going to do "it". So the exact protocol, page size, and transfer speed are agreed. This happens with a bi-directi

Hi Mark, hi Guiseppe, Yes, sure, we are all on one line here. And Mark, in my mind there is no doubt that "if (log) {" is not causing the problem. And yes, the this pointer is damaged some other way. BUT if this would be due to a compiler issue I have trouble to accept that this happens only once

Hi deep, I was surprised by your remark that you were able to see something of the fax. I have tried that many times, in an attempt to see "who did it" but I was never able to see a fax. The most recent failure I had here was from March 1st, and indeed, after changing the rights from 0600 to 0644

Guiseppe, Did you flush(fd) the logging every time you log something? Writing to a file is heavily asynchronous. Simon -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/600219 Title: faxgetty segfault

Mark, Giuseppe, In the past I have been putting some effort in, so I returned to find out where I stalled. Amongst the trouble I ran into was that I am running hylafax version 6.0.3 but I downloaded the source of 6.0.5 for debugging. And it did not work. So later I loaded the 6.0.3 version also. B

Hi Guiseppe and Mark, Following the instructions from Guiseppe (who said you were not an expert on gdb?!) , I changed the gdb-wrapper. Now all seems to work! gdb starts up, blocking the console and in the process list I can now see both gdb running and faxgetty. Like this: simon@Helios:~$ ps auxf

Gents, In the meanwhile I tried to download and compile the package. No problem with that. Since I do not want to install it I ran into the problem that some shared lib is missing. Apparently I downloaded the source of an other version than I am running now. I'll re-check and have another try.
