Since there is no way I can negotiate the Gnome Bugzilla web pages to
report this "bug"
I hope this may prove of value to someone re: my previous post on
PageStream crashing with a segmentation fault.

Thread 1 (Thread 16384 (LWP 6557)):
#0 0x40158ea6 in waitpid () from /lib/libc.so.6
#1 0x4024be26 in libgnomeui_module_info_get () from
/usr/lib/libgnomeui-2.so.0
#2 0x408c6695 in __pthread_sighandler () from /lib/libpthread.so.0
#0 0x40158ea6 in waitpid () from /lib/libc.so.6

I got this report by running gdb like so
gdb PageStream4Pro 6557
which gave me lines of stuff, and then I entered at the gdb prompt
thread apply all bt
which gave me the above.
apparently info that Gnome Bugzilla can use, but I don't know how to
give it to them.
thanks.merci

Are you using gnome or kde? Try switching to the other and see if you get
the same results.

I am using kde (Konqueror sp?)
I have researched (a bit) on changing desktops, but it does not appear
to be easy in this system. I tried changing themes, tried every theme
avaliable, with no success.

try this
open a shell and type
WINDOWMANAGER=fluxbox startx -- :11
This will start the fluxbox window manager on terminal 11 and your
screen should automatically switch to it. To get back to kde press (all
3 keys at the same time) Ctrl+Alt+F7, to return to gnome Ctrl+Alt+F11
This assumes that fluxbox is installed.

Once the new window manager is open you can start a shell and type in
whatever commands you normally use to run pagestream. If it is a kde
problem then pagestream should work fine in any other windowmanager.

If fluxbox isn't installed try blackbox, gnome or gnome-session.
(I've had varying luck running gnome and kde at the same time using this
method.)

You can select different terminals to display on by changing the last #
(I've used F8 through F12 I believe)

Depending on the version of kde you are using a simpler method of
starting another window manager may be available.

Go to the "k menu", third or 4th item up should be a menu "start new
session" if so just select it. When the new screen shows up look for a
button named "menu" press it and select "session type" choose the
window manager you want to use then login.

Once again I know nothing of your system so this information may not
apply in your case.

I had similar issues but the problem was not with KDE but was with the
chosen theme in gnome (even though I run a KDE desktop)

I'd suggest loading nautilus and try changing your gnome theme.

open a shell
at the prompt type "nautilus" without the quotes
in the location field of the nautilus window type "preferences:///"
without the quotes and press enter

click or doubleclick the theme icon (depending on your setup)
from there I would suggest trying bluecurve, wonderland or gorilla
themes. My problem's (segfaults) seemed to be caused by themes that had
"maclike" interfaces.

Once you've done this try running pagestream again.

One of the curiosities that I ran into was that problems I hadn't
encountered before showed up in the PageStream4.*.Pro archive, for
diagnostic purposes you might check an older version and see if it
works on your setup.

Unfortunately there are a lot of variables (distribution, version,
version of gnome/kde) but who knows, maybe you'll get lucky.

See ya

I installed fluxbox, and tried your suggestion.
I went to F11, and tried running pagestream4.
same problem - segmentation fault.

I downloaded nautilus and ran it from the console, and entered
preferences:/// but there were no themes listed, just "file manager"
AFAIK I don't have any gnome themes, as I don't use the Gnome desktop.
Changing the KDE desktop themes makes no difference.

Sounds like you are treading unfamiliar (to me) territory then, I guess
you might take solace in knowing you have a unique (so far) problem ;-(

Did any of the previous versions of Pagestream work?

What distribution and version are you using.

One last idea, since you don't regularly run gnome and don't have a full
gnome install it might be worth trying to install the gnome desktop.
You could still use your preferred desktop but since Pagestream has
been developed under gnome perhaps there is a library or hidden
dependency that nobody else has run across.

Good luck

Hello,

I apologize if this ground has already been covered -- PgS (both of the newer
versions?) will definitely crash if you have a printer line in your prefs
file (one put there by a previous version of PgS).

Also, have you tried running PgS from the shell so that you can see any error
messages? What I've actually done is put a redirect of stdout and stderr to a
logfile in the startup script.

thanks for the input!
as to the printer line in the prefs files, I can see no file called
prefs, or ending in *.prefs
what is its real name?

as for redirecting to stdout and stderr to a log script, how does one
go about doing this??
thanks for any help!

thanks for the reply!
here is my posting from the Linspire (aka Lindows) groups
"thanks for all the replies!

I have had GIMP installed from day one.
yet PageStream did not work.
so I installed every Gnome-thing I could see,and PageStream started
working, sort of.
I got this segmentation fault crash on loading it.
running apt-get leads to this:
# apt-get install gnome-core
Reading Package Lists... Error!
E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room
E: Error occured while processing python2.2-musicbrainz (NewFileVer1)
E: Problem with MergeList
/var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.us.debian.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_binary-i386_Packages
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
so I am dead in the water so to speak.
thanks for any help!
ken"

I am unable to run Gnome desktop as I cannot download the appropriate
files.
besides
having GIMP up and running means I should have all the necessary
files, non?
I do have GIMP up and running, but still this segmentation fault!!

Eliminate the pagestream prefs file, or a line something like the following:

SETOUTPUT PostScript lp

This file should be in a subdirectory of your home directory

~/.PageStream4/PageStream4.prefs
~/.PageStream5/PageStream5.prefs

The line I use is:

$PGSPATH/PageStream4 >> ~/PgS.log 2>&1

The important part (with bash, anyway) is you tie the stderr to stdout at the
end of the command after redirecting into the PgS.log file: 2>&1

Thanks! I found my PageStream.prefs file!
It was all by its lonesome in /root/.PageStream4/
the setoutput line appears to be correct though, it has my printer in it.
SETOUTPUT PostScript Samsung1740
SETOUTPUT1 SOURCE AUTO PAPER Letter 8.5\" 11\" 0\" 0\" PORTRAIT
SETOUTPUT2 PPD file:///var/spool/cups/tmp/4126a95613c36 SENDTO PRINTER
SETOUTPUT3 CYANSCREEN DEFAULT DEFAULT MAGENTASCREEN DEFAULT DEFAULT
YELLOWSCREEN DEFAULT DEFAULT BLACKSCREEN DEFAULT DEFAULT SPOTSCREEN
DEFAULT DEFAULT
SETOUTPUT4 INCLUDEERRORHANDLER FALSE
SETOUTPUT5 FONTUNLOAD PAGE UCR 80% GCR 100%
I will delete the *.prefs file anyway and see if that helps

and I have added

$PGSPATH/PageStream4 >> ~/PgS.log 2>&1
to my shell file just above "exit 0"

Not really related to PgS per se, but you aren't logging in as root, are you?
If you were logging in as user "ken" then it should
be /home/ken/.PageStream4. There are security and stability issues with using
the root as a user account -- its not recommended practice.

> the setoutput line appears to be correct though, it has my printer in it.

Yes, but the one I mentioned was also correct for my printer and was entered
by previous version of PgS. However, the new version did not like it.
Deleting that line (and resetting up the printer I assume though don't
recall) corrected things.

Note that the only line I had to remove was the "SETOUTPUT postscript
<printer>" line

This is post-download problem. Try to grow cache limit in
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/70debconf file:
