Hi guys,
I'm on ArchLinux 64 bit. I was testing vpython but unfortunately it seems that it just crashes..
Would you guys please confirm or suggest fix?
Just install package go to /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/visual/demos the run one of those demos.
It keeps crashing for me,
Thanks

Segmentation fault means there's a bug in the actual program. It's trying to access a location in memory that it doesn't own. Try contacting whoever it is that maintains it. I don't think there's an easy fix, but someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

In Zen they say: If something is boring after two minutes, try it for four. If still boring, try it for eight, sixteen, thirty-two, and so on. Eventually one discovers that it's not boring at all but very interesting.

I have the same problem on two x86_64 machines. The third one if fine, x86_64 too. I tried recompiling vpython without success.
gdb gives me a weird stacktrace:

I have recompiled python and vpython with debug symbols. Here is the stacktrace:

It fails when calling something about boost pointers...

I have open a bug report: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/20503
Maybe an intel video issue?
