    CAESES.sh was not available as a command so I used CAESES-FFW.sh instead with those arguments and still the system freezes in both cases.

     

    The memory test ran for 8 hours with no fault detected.

     

    I have built an Xubuntu 14.04 virtual machine using VMware Player and CAESES works within this without immediate issue. It will be good enough to let me play with the software. If you would still like me to keep digging on my native system I am system I am happy to do so.

    I agree that it is a very difficult thing to diagnose. If it were a code base I was familiar with and could run on my machine then I would strategically place break points and divide and conquer until the offending section of code has been found. It is something that I have had to deal with before, works on my machine but not on another.

    Okay, ran those commands. It started up, said it didn't have network access asked me to either setup a proxy or quit. I don't have a proxy server and don't think there are any down stream so selected quit. It then gracefully quit.

     

    This problem is getting interesting, so what next? :)

    To clarify the "other graphics intensive applications". Until recently I was an OpenGL developer and I bought this laptop (luggable) as a desktop replacement that could handle the very large triangulation and simulation data we were dealing with. During development it was running Xubuntu and at no point did it show any of the issues I am seeing with CAESES. So sorry, I don't buy the "change your OS" argument.

     

    That said thank you for making this software available for free, it is just a pity I couldn't play with it. I was really looking forward to how I could match it with my Mechanical Engineering studies.

     

    All the best,

    Sorry for the late reply Konrad. I did not realise that there was a post here from you.

     

    I can't turn off the Intel GPU in the BIOS. My understanding of the proprietary Nvidia driver is that it switches it off anyway but I could be wrong.

     

    CAESES runs until the initial dialogue goes to 100% there is a pause and then the screen goes blank and the system freezes. It has the hallmark of a memory leak in either X-Window or the Nvidia driver. It is a strange thing because other graphics intensive applications don't appear to have any issues.

     

    Cheers,

     

    Scott.

    Hello,

     

    After invoking CAESES-FFW_3.0.19_Linux.x86_64/CAESES-FFW.sh my system become unreponsive and then X-Window crashes. This is the first time a program has done this to my system so it is not a common occurrence.

     

    I am running Xubuntu 13.10 with the proprietry Nvidia drivers on an Asus G55VW. I do not know how to get diagnostic information from Caeses.

     

    Thank you,

     

    Scott.
