Re: LabView 7.1 segfault in Fedora Core 2

[Bill_Gabella]

I noticed in the mirroring of the discussion on ni.com that my notes
webpage did not make it onto comp.lang.labview. Check out

http://arago.fel.vanderbilt.edu:8200/Members/gabella/docs/LV_err_summary/

What is there are straces (just the system calls from LabVIEW) for the
working and non-working kernels, and some of the error log reports.

There are two threads on ni.com :
http://exchange.ni.com/servlet/ProcessRequest?RHIVEID=101&RPAGEID=135&HOID=50650000000800000082F50000&UCATEGORY_0=_49_%24_6_&UCATEGORY_S=0

Of course, it is not such a bad thing to work in the 2.6.7 kernel, it is
just
that if it is broke in 2.6.8 it might be broke in all future kernels.

Hello Bill,

We need to determine if this is the same issue than needs to be readdressed for newer versions of the kernel, or if this relates to an entirely new issue.

When you type the command �ls -afl" do "." (dot) and ".." (dot-dot) always appear as the first two entries of the list? Repeat this for every directory starting with root "/" through and including the LabVIEW vi.lib and user.lib directories. If installed to the default location, this would be:

/
/usr
/usr/local
/usr/local/lv71
/usr/local/lv71/vi.lib
/usr/local/lv71/user.lib

If �.� and �..� are not always the first items returned, then the tune2fs didn't work, for whatever reason. If the tune2fs works, then the �.� and �..� should appear first in the directory listing without sortin
g (ls -afl).

If �.� and �..� are always the first items returned, and you still gets the seg fault, then you may be experiencing some completely unrelated problem, which could be dual-processor specific. Are you running on a dual-processor system?


If none of these suggestions help, or if I�m not correctly understanding your issue, please reply with comments or answers to the discussion above and any additional information that may help, and I�ll be happy to look further into it.

Have a nice day!
