VDR 1.5.4+ crashes - vdr

29 Dec 2007


      Hi!
I'm having a problem with that VDR version 1.5.4 and newer crashes as 
fast as I tries to start them. See below - I have read through the 
changelog but I have no idea what might cause my segfaults.

I had the same problems with 1.5.3 before I copied arial.ttf and 
arialbd.ttf to /usr...truetype/
Thanks for any help,
