Hello all,

after upgrading my frimware to RX-48_DIABLO_5.2008.43-7_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin

when i try and run osso-xterm it seg faults. i have no idea why. i tried to remove all settings and restore the device but i am still getting seg fault:

Nokia-N810-WiMAX-43-7:/home/user# osso-xterm
Segmentation fault


any ideas?

thanks

I think is your problem. Maemo has a feature where it can cache GTK stuff for faster loading of GTK apps called maemo-launcher. A program has to be specially configured during compile time for it to use maemo launcher. When maemo-launcher is used with a program, you end up with <program> and <program>.launch. With maemo-launcher, <program>.launch becomes a library of sorts but contains the main program but you need <program> to launch it.

You're basically missing the main program, so best I can suggest to you is to install my mod =):
http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=23291

That looks fine actually, it just shows it iterating over the elements of $PATH looking for osso-xterm.launch and finding it in /usr/bin.

Kossy: does reinstalling osso-xterm ("sudo apt-get install --reinstall osso-xterm") make a difference?

thanks for the quick replies guys.

but no both of the suggestions don't work. i have no clue whats going on. even when i restore it to factory it does not work.

weird huh?

I still have not found a fix for this. this renders my n810 useless because all i use is the terminal. i am not happy. selling my n810.
