Phfont crashes on M6  
Not sure this is the best place for such a report.

When running M6 and trying to connect to the machine with Phindows, phfont crashes right away. The same machine with a 6
.3.2 kernel works just fine.  I'm assuming this is not a phfont problem, but attached the dump file anyway.

Re: Phfont crashes on M6  
Hi Mario,

The photon guys don't have this environment setup right now, and they are deeply embroiled in 6.4.0 work.

Would you be able to post a backtrace - they may be able to spot something.  Certainly, photon has changed quite a bit 
(in the backend) for 6.4

Cheers,

Colin

VMWare to the rescue... ;-)

(gdb) backtrace
#0  0xb0355453 in ?? ()
#1  0xb8218802 in ?? ()
#2  0xb032fef2 in ?? ()
#3  0xb032ec82 in ?? ()
#4  0xb821f2b0 in ?? ()
#5  0xb821ddf6 in ?? ()

Not sure that is what you meant. You can get this whatever the environment you are working from.

Just to be clear, I'm getting this on a 6.3.2 machine which only has the 6.4 kernel from M7.

Backtrace, yes - symbol names, no. :-)

Even though the backtrace looks good (no 0xdeadbeef), it is a bit useless ;-).

Need more info:

1. Slog messages?
2. Do you create a new Photon session or ditto of an existing sessions?
3. Try not to run phfont at all.
4. ls -l /dev/phfont*
5. ls -l /usr/bin/phrelay

Really ?

I put a experimental phrelay ( one with support for clip board ) that i was given a while back ( 2006 ) and it doesn't 
crash anymore.

If you think this is worth investigating I could but the original phrelay to help you out, but as far as I'm concern 
I'll be moving on  ;-)
