Random crash to desktop

[allen]

I've installed megaglest on my 64bit kubuntu machine with no problems, it's running fantastic. I installed it on my son's PC and it crashes to the desktop at random times. There doesn't seem to be any pattern or specific thing he's doing that causes it.

It's a 32bit AMD machine, 2.1GHz with 4GB of memory.
Kubuntu 10.04.
Nvidia Geforce6200 graphics card with the latest proprietary drivers loaded.
Megaglest version is 3.4.0.

Here is the console output from the last crash:

cj@cj:~$
---------------------------------------

I don't know if the libxerces-c.so.28 is the problem but the file is right there where it's supposed to be so I don't know why it can't find it. Could that be the issue?

If you need the debug.log it can be downloaded here: http://www.mtlaners.org/allen/debug.log.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Run the script from a terminal like this:

sh +x ./glest

and paste the output here

Please output the result of the following command:

Code: [Select]

softcoder@softhauslinux:~$ /sbin/ldconfig -p | grep -m 1 libxerces-c
My output is:

Code: [Select]

libxerces-c.so.28 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libxerces-c.so.28

[allen]

I get nothing when I run that command. An ls of /usr/lib shows that that file is not there. It is in the megaglest/lib directory though.

[softcoder]

try installing libxerces and delete from the megaglest/lib folder. See if that corrects your problem.

[allen]

I'll give that a try when I get home tonight. Thanks!
