Package: libc6
Version: 2.7-6
Severity: important


Applications (such as mplayer and vlc) that call gettimeofday() from
/lib/libc.so.6 get a SIGSEGV.  See gdb output below:
  the gdb output isnt enough. gettimeofday takes pointers, if the
pointers are FUBAR, it's normal it segfaults.

  Please provide a full backtrace.

Any news on that?


I haven't been able to get any more info than I already sent
(rebuilding from source and adding -dbg packages didn't help at all).
I wish I could be of more help.  I'd be happy to do anything you might
suggest, though my knowledge of gdb is really weak.


Do you also have libc6-dbg installed? This one should give you more detauls in the backtrace.

I have also just remarked that you are using nvidia drivers. Care to retry with nvidia-glx removed, and with the nv driver instead?
