Okay, I am really new to Linux, just tried it today, and am having alot of trouble. I am using SuSE 10.0, and have read the issues in this forum about the workaround for it. The problem is I dont know how to implement the workaround.
All I know is that I have to tell my glibc not to send SIGABRT's by running secondlife as the following:
MALLOC_CHECK_=0 ./secondlife
I have no idea how to do this, lol. Like I said, I am brand new to Linux and dont understand what to do. If someone could tell me how to do this it would be of a great help. Thanks so much.

From: Foamy Keiko I am brand new to Linux and dont understand what to do. If someone could tell me how to do this it would be of a great help. Thanks so much. What desktop environment are you using? KDE, Gnome, or something else? First you need to open a console window (with KDE, you click KMenu->System->Konsole), use 'cd' to change to the directory where you extracted SL, then run: ./secondlife. If it dies with that glibc error, then run: MALLOC_CHECK_=0 ./secondlife. You shouldn't disable SIGABRT unless you have to. |
