Re: Vista RTM startxserver & startxwin fail?


OK, I tried to rebuild 1.5.22-1 from source, but during make install, I get a popup from windows that says "collect2.exe has stopped working".

This is the last thing I see in the console before it happens.

Sounds like the definition of a Bohr bug :)

Looks like i'm using the 1.5.22-11 DLL. I didn't see an option in the setup to use a different version... How would I go about doing that?

Either try the latest developer snapshot or build a new version from source. I did the latter with additional debug output. The problem still doesn't show up anymore, regardless of the version I use.

You could also try stuff like rebasing to another base address, e.g.
rebaseall -b 0x65000000, rebase back to 0x70000000, reboot, revert to
the 1.5.22 DLL, whatever.  Apparently *something* healed it for me.
Maybe there's some self-healing feature within Vista...
