When i tried to exicute Syncterm, I got a "Segmentation Fault (Core Dump)". Any Ideas. I've installed it many times on other distros, and never got this error. I tried twice to install it, double checking prerequsiets
If you're building it yourself from source, a backtrace of the segfault (captured via gdb) would be very helpful: http://wiki.synchro.net/howto:gdb

Running in an X environment or console? If console, curses or ANSI?
I have to ask a stupid question as I am not well versed in linux, but trying to learn.
what is the difference between x environment and console,
and curses and ansi when it comes to the environment.

have you tried building your own syncterm on those systems you have problems installing pre-packaged builds on?

Curses and ANSI modes are text only, curses going through the curses/ncurses library (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ncurses) for terminal translations/sequences. X and SDL modes are grahical, with SDL going through the SDL library (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_DirectMedia_Layer) and X going directly to X: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_System
Thanks Rob, I'm def going the graphical route.
So my understanding is, it
should not matter what distro I'm using, as long as I have all the prereqs installed.

I've only ever built my own SyncTerm myself from source. Works
every time.

You can decide the "route" in the SyncTERM->Program Settings->Startup Screen Mode. Also by using the '-i' command-line option.
So my understanding is, it
should not matter what distro I'm using, as long as I have all the
prereqs installed.
That's been my experience.

Same here, and same results.

Update time (for both)?
;)
Thanks. I think i'm zeroing in on the issue. It may be running out of stack space. I'm going to fiddle around with that idea and see if that helps my case some.
