PureBasic 6.2 Segmentation Fault on Linux Mint

Post by swhite »

Hi

I am using LinuxMint 22.2 on a brand new computer and when I try and launch Purebasic 6.2 it says "segmentation fault (core dumped)". The strange thing is that I have LinuxMint 22.2 installed on a Proxmox server and Purebasic works just fine. I have never seen a segmentation fault when launching Purebasic Linux before today so does anyone have any idea of what to check?

Thanks,
Simon

You have to check your PB version.
Which one did you installed?

And this is more a Linux question, than a General Discussion thing.

I haven't seen this for a long time and it should have been fixed long ago.

For Mint Linux, the version for Ubuntu 20.04 should be the right one.
I use Mint Linux LMDE 6 (PB Ubuntu 20.04) and LMDE 7 (PB Ubuntu 24.04) and don't have this error.

Solved: PureBasic 6.2 Segmentation Fault on Linux Mint

I downloaded and installed PB 6.21 for Ubuntu 24.04 and everything worked properly. So the PB 6.2 that I have used elsewhere must have been the wrong Linux version.

Just throwing in my 2 cents, I just installed PB on Mint, here's what worked for me..

Linux Mint v22.1 Cinnamon, and PB 6.21 (Ubuntu 18.04 - x64)
