 Pychess crashes
Subject description: Tahrpup 6.0.5 |
|
I installed pychess from ppm and it works fine but after playing a game or two it freezes and then it has to be killed. How can I find out what's causing it to freeze/crash and fix it?
I checked the dependencies and it doesn't report anything in pychess missing libraries but just says missing humanity-icon-theme and jwm2 in user installed packages, so, I installed the humanity icon theme but jwm2 isn't found in the ppm.
What should be done?

Try running it from the console.
Keep the console open as you use it.
See if anything gets reported in the console when it freezes.

Did so in terminal, nothing as such, some python errors and a lot of these warnings, these are just non-stop!!
| Code: | 07:58:47 Default Warning: no weather-few-clouds icon in icon-theme-gnome
07:58:50 Default Warning: no system-users icon in icon-theme-gnome
07:58:52 Default Warning: no weather-overcast icon in icon-theme-gnome

Edit: Also, found this:
| Code: | sys:1: Warning: GChildWatchSource: Exit status of a child process was requested but ECHILD was received by waitpid(). Most likely the process is ignoring SIGCHLD, or some other thread is invoking waitpid() with a nonpositive first argument; either behavior can break applications that use g_child_watch_add()/g_spawn_sync() either directly or indirectly.
08:06:09 (u'Python', '08:10:6.139') Error: Success

These show up in the middle sometimes:
| Code: | 08:20:04 (u'Python', '08:10:0.064') Error: Success
08:20:04 (u'Python', '08:10:59.944') Error: Success

| Code: | /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pychess/ic/ICLogon.py:90: Warning: Source ID 89 was not found when attempting to remove it

I've also found that as soon as I click on the chat button, it hangs.

Are you using the Tahrpup devx SFS and having it load?
The devx has a version of Python in it.
It could be conflicting with what Pychess is installing as a dependency of Python.
This is one of the problems using software that was compiled for another operating system.
A lot of it will work in Puppy, but sometimes you have problems.
PPM in Tahrpup can get software from Ubuntu repositories.
Try this to make sure you are getting the latest stuff from Ubuntu repository.
In PPM.
Uninstall the Pychess you installed.
Might be good idea to reboot computer, to make sure it all got removed from storage and memory.
In PPM>Configure>Update Database>Update Now
Run the database update.
Now reinstall Pychess and all the dependencies.
Reboot computer to make sure everything gets saved to the Tahrpup save.
Any help?
Note:
About the Tahrpup save.
Make sure there is enough free space in the save to hold all the new software that gets installed to use Pychess.
PPM may or may not warn you if there is not enough free space.
If you are just looking for a chess game.
There should be something in the Additional Software Games section of this forum.
