Maemo applications must be run with the run-standalone.sh script!

Segmentation fault

gianko, try to run it as 'user', not 'root'.
if you want to execute waze from xterm, do not run 'sudo gainroot' before call waze.
i also get this error when execute waze in root mode.

same output occurs in here.
i think navit-qml doesn't compatible with the cssu qt-library, but it doesn't affect waze.
in my device, waze is running properly

thank you for the suggestion, but i guess this is not the issue, it always give segmentation fault with "non root" permission.

i have a question: should i be able to run waze in xterm from anywhere just typing waze? with navit it works, but with waze i can only go to /opt/waze/bin and then type ./waze

you could run waze from anywhere, by adding '/opt/waze/bin' in your PATH environment variable, or make waze symbolic link in /usr/bin.

Re: [Announce] Waze for N900/N9/N950

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to use Waze on my N9 and it does not seem to activate the GPS. When in Waze the GPS icon does not show on the status bar. Other GPS applications work just fine.

Thanks for your help and let me know if there is anything I can post to help fix this. I would like to use Waze.

-Mike

Re: [Announce] Waze for N900/N9/N950

I'm afraid that reinstalling it won't solve the segfault. In the next release I am rewriting the network layer (huge huge task) in hope that it will solve other related crashes that people experience.

In the meanwhile, I will try to recompile Waze in debug mode so that when it crash it creates a corefile which allows me to see the exact stacktrace for what happened

Re: [Announce] Waze for N900/N9/N950

Is it possible to increase font size?

it's a bit hard to read the text messages while driving.

the ui layer along withe the fonts will be rewritten in one of the next versions - it is a lot of work and will take some time.
