Hi,

I am writing a custom application for a project, the application is
VERY similar to a minicom type communications program.

I have written it in c, on my mandrale 10 system but when I try to run
it on puppy it crashes with the message "Segmentation fault", it
also crashes whatever text login shell I used when calling the program.

I downloaded, installed and compiled my application on vector linux,
but that a.out crashes on puppy also.. what system should
I install to compile c apps for puppy?

thanks..

p.s. my app runs fine on mandrake 10 or on vector...

use mandrake 9.2?

have you tried running it through gdb and doing a backtrace when it crashes?
Have you checked its library dependancies exist with ldd?
