Celestia Forums

Hello all,

I installed celestia-1.2.5-rpm's from sourceforge ( celestia-kde-1.2.5-1.SuSE.i586.rpm
celestia-kde-textures-1.2.5-1.SuSE.i586.rpm).
Then I start celestia from the console and I get the message
"nStars: 112521
Parent body 'TYC 5503-946-1' of 'b' not found.".
But celestia try to start.
Then it crashes and the KDE-Crashmanager appears.
The errormessages are [1].

I also tried to install it from source.
I compiled --with-kde and installed with checkinstall.
Same errors occur.
I compiled --with-gtk, same result (but no KDE-crashmanager).

My system:
SuSE 8.0 professinal
KDE 3.0
graphic card nVidia TNT2
original nvidia OpenGL-driver (NVIDIA_GLX, NVIDIA_kernel).

I hope that you can help me to get celestia running.
Many thanks in advance.

Roman

Hi,

some additional information:

The programm is killed due to a fatal error (segmentation fault).

I compiled without any option, --with-kde, --with-gtk
and tried the rpm's.
I tried to start celestia under KDE and under windowmaker.
In every case I get the same error :
StarDatabase::read: nStars = 112521
nStars: 112521
Parent body 'TYC 5503-946-1' of 'b' not found
segmentation fault

Hi,

once again some additional informations.

I compiled the source of celestia-1.2.4 without
any options.
Celestia starts up - no segmentation fault.
Fine!
But selecting of saturn cause a segmentation fault
and the programm get killed.

I have no problems with other applications which I
compiled myself.
The system is really stable.

Where should I begin for find the problem with celestia?

Every hint is very welcome.

Roman
