KildClient not loading in Ubuntu Netbook

Asked by Kevin Couch

I installed the KildClient on Ubuntu Netbook 10.10 and it appeared to install correctly. However, when I try to load the program, it starts to load, but immediately closes. It does not return an error message and does not appear in any running processes. I can't tell if it's incompatible with the Netbook edition or if there's something the Netbook edition is missing that the standard Ubuntu release has. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try typing kildclient from the terminal, and see if there are any output error messages

to open a terminal use
Applications->Accessories->Terminal

kevin@TheDuskrider:~$ kildclient
Segmentation fault
kevin@TheDuskrider:~$ kildclient
Segmentation fault

I ran it twice to see if it returned the same error, and it did. I've tried reinstalling it twice and there were no errors during either installation.

This looks like there is a bug in kildclient. "Segmentation fault" indicates a major problem with the internal operation of the program.

Without installing the debugging packages, it will be hard to identify the reason for this problem. It is a programming error, undoubtedly, but it is hard to be more specific without looking at the code running on your system. You might want to contact the author at their sourceforge site. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=680605&group_id=118257&func=browse

I'm having the same problem, here in Natty Narwhal. There any way to resolve this?
