[Kunda1]

Anyone able to decipher the segfault ?

[triplus]

Install proprietary GPU driver or use a workaround for Nouveau:

https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic. ... 83#p342562

P.S. Looks like a Nouveau/Qt WebEngine (upstream) related issue.

[openBrain]

I second @triplus. Same problem some days ago in the french subforum. Replacing nouveau by proprietary drivers solved the problem.
As it may not be easy, here is a good tutorial.

[Petert]

Ok, will try that tomorrow. Freecad ran for a while after a reboot this evening.

update:

Updated the AppImage through AppImageUpdate-x86_64.AppImage to:

Code: Select all

FreeCAD_0.19-18614-Linux-Conda_Py3Qt5_glibc2.12-x86_64.AppImage

And now my computer freezes, only a hard reset will wake it up again.

Will try the Nvidia drivers now.

UPDATE:

As expected the driver install wrecked my working machine. I reinstalled everything from scratch (even the display drivers through apt) and Freecad seems to work without problems now. The SpaceNavigator works and the screeen looks nicer with the Nvidia drivers.
btw: I used the upper part of this how-to, works better then the manual way that f*cked up my machine.

Thanks for percevereing...
perhaps you want to update the wiki with your suggestions ?

[Petert]

perhaps you want to update the wiki with your suggestions ?

I sure would like to do that. I made notes so it will not be too hard to do.
Tomorrow I will have some spare time to do that, how does it work?

DM me your preferred login and email and I'll make you an account on the wiki.

DM me your preferred login and email and I'll make you an account on the wiki.

I already tried to PM yorik and jmaustpc as per instruction on the Wiki itself. But that PM was never send, very strange.
Will PM you right now, hope that will work.

Update (2 minutes later):
Nope, pm send to you is still stuck in the 'out' folder just like the PM I tried to send out last night. Why?
