- Hello,
- I recently had an opportunity to test some software on a demo Crimson VGXT.
- I ran across a software bug that I have been unable to duplicate on any
- other machine. The bug involved a segmentation fault or bus error in
- delobj(). I am pretty sure the object was OK, because
-
- 1. I could see it on the screen.
- 2. the calling code looked like: if( isobj( obj ) ) delobj(obj);
-
- A run of versions showed the maint_dev 4.1 was installed. Is this an
- SGI internal release at this point? I am only running with 4.05 which
- could explain why I haven't been able to duplicate the bug.
-
- I appologize for not giving more detail, but I only had access to the
- machine for a very short time (a couple of hours) and didn't realize I
- couldn't reproduce the problem until later.
