Game crashes when trying to /devmap

[PureNoob]

When I try to /devmap, the game just shuts down. 
I am using Ubuntu 9.04 and the basic Tremulous from repository with Volt Hud (if that has anything to do, I doubt it).
Any ideas?

Run it from the console and post up the output.

segfaults are always fun.
ok now more info:

• what client are you using( i don't know what ubuntu repository has)
• have you tried a "newer" client
• what qvm are you trying to run/ is it the one included with the repo if so what ones in there.

id prob recommend trying a new client maybe the issue is fixed its the easiest option.
any other advice i would need more info. i am great at causing segfaults not so much fixing em

EDIT: it wouldn't take much but it would be possible to make tremulous do a BT when it receives a signal i don't know if its available on windows but ive played around with execinfo.h with a few of my personal coding projects to give me a BT without bothering with gdb.

Thanks for the tip, I'll add that to tremfusion immediately

Okay, installing Tremfusion fixed that.

Perfect line for Amanieu's sig, tremfusion website, and the like.

good to hear TF is a great project (bit too feature heavy for me but thats y i got my own project)

its not hard altho i haven't added it for fsm yet but once i learned how im definitely thinking about it.

Wouldn't it just be a load of memory addresses, with no names?
It would be really shiny if it could work for QVM's too

non-windows binaries aren't stripped, but 95% of crashes will have their cause masked by the qvms (this backtrace won't be able to fetch the arguments of functions on the stack, in particular vmCall(), that you would need to get a better idea). you can generate a stack trace from qvms, but the code doesn't currently exist and you need the vm map file to read symbols from (it's not packaged with 1.1).
