Hi group,
I install IDL 6.2 64 bit on a 64 bit laptop with SUSE 10 64 bit, The thing
giving me segmentation fault evey time I tried to run it. I found similar
situations on google with various versions of IDL on linux box, but nothing
works. Anyone got any ideas?

Hi,
May be this information can help you.
On my machine IDL6.2 with SUSE 10 (64bit, NVIDIA) was crushing due to
the permission on /dev/nvidiactl
IDL tryed to use DIrectRendering therefore one need to have permission
for it.
In SUSE 10 default permission for DirectRendering is given for users in
"video" group.
After adding users to Video group segmented fault was over.
Problem also solved after disabling DIrectRendering in IDLDE.

Arman.

Do you get a hint by strace or ltrace?

We have no problems either. I believe a library is missing or wrong
version on yours.
