FAHControl - segmantation fault

Post by OrsPervIe »

I am using Debian sid fully upgraded.
I installed fahcontrol_7.5.1-1_all.deb with no errors showing up. The problem I am having is when I try to run it crashes. To trouble shoot I went into terminal and got this result.

Code: Select all

$ /usr/bin/FAHControl
Loading theme Default
Segmentation fault
$
A month ago I ran into an upgrade problem and at that time control was working fine. After a fresh install and upgrading I tried to reinstall and control now crashes. client and viewer seem to working as they should.

FAHControl 7.5.1 and earlier require python 2 and python 3 doesn't replace 2.

I would recommend to stick with Debian 9.9

https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/cu ... 64/iso-cd/

On the other hand, you can run FAHClient on the newer OS, but no FAH Control.
Perhaps it's possible to use the Webclient to visually see the client running, and some more terminal shenanigans to set up the client for modifying any CPU or GPU slots.

I haven't tried the headless option yet, but check here for terminal commands on running FAHClient from terminal:
