GiD 12 crashes X on linux 64 bit

Hi all,
I have just downloaded GiD 12 for linux 64 bit. It makes the whole X server crash systematically when I use the file browser to open a result file, for instance. Tried also with the last development version and in safe mode. Did anyone experience the same? I am using CentOS 6 with the last nvidia drivers.
Regards,

It crash simply opening the 'file browser' window or if crash when reading the result?
In the second case, it happen with all kind of results file? (e.g. some file of our examples folder)
Maybe it crash when drawing the results. Can try to change some OpenGL drawing preference, e.g.
Utilities->Preferences... Graphical-System- Method (change from 'Vertex buffer objects' to 'Immediate mode')

Well, today it crashed when I just opened the "File" menu. No, I don't think it is related to loading results.

deleted .gidDefaults, restarted in safe mode. It not only crashes when I click to "open" a result file, but also when I click to "save" a model.
weird

This is totally random, I managed to open a result file doing "open with..." from a right-click menu in nautilus. Then it crashed while I was playing with the model.

You said that it is a Linux x64 GiD version, but what is the exact version of GiD?
12.0.8 (current official)? 12.1.8d (last developer)?
(see Help->About...)

Hi,
which version of Linux are you using?
can you post the output of 'uname -a' and 'cat /etc/issue' ?
can you start GiD from a console/terminal and then tell us what message is printed?
best,
gidteam

Code: Select all
uname -a
Linux NLosacco.uniroma2.it 2.6.32-573.8.1.el6.centos.plus.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Nov 10 18:20:27 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Code: Select all
cat /etc/issue
CentOS release 6.7 (Final)
Kernel \r on an \m
I tried to launch gid from the command line but when X crashes I get no message whatsoever, even if I redirect both stdout and stderr to a file.
