- core files are bad: debug them with gdb
- For most crashes with LICOS:
- $ gdb `which python` core.12345
- (gdb) where
- to get a traceback. core.12345 is the most recent core file in your running directory.
- Traceback will tell you approximately where you failed.
- You can also 'print' variables to determine their contents.
- to turn them offish, "limit coredumpsize 0" in cshrc will turn the size down to 0, but won't prevent the file from being created.
- For most crashes with LICOS:
- When starting scriptEngine, sometimes the logging manager port is in use.
Kill the 'artsd' process and restart.
- To remove the 'artsd' problem above:
- From Konqueror, Settings->Configure Konqueror->Plugins
- On the Plugins page, select the Plugins tab
- uncheck "Use artsdsp to pipe plugin sound through artsd"
