Hi Alon, when trying to use valgrind I'm getting "Syscall param ioctl(generic) points to uninitialised byte(s)", so I guess, if I understand correctly, I need to compile libssl with -DPURIFY, or is there a flag I can use when compiling valgrind? I would rather not experiment too much, as the machine is serving approximately 40 VMs in production use. I'm a bloody beginner; if you can provide me with more explicit instructions, so that I don't risk overwriting original libs and messing up the system, I'd be more than willing to give it a try. Under non-debugging circumstances, the crashes can be provoked quite easily, by overzealous use of the delete-key in msword or outlook. When running under valgrind albeit without randomization disabled, I cannot provoke the crashes; I'm guessing, it may be a race condition that fails to trigger under the substantial slowdown caused by the debugging. regards and thanks, TF _______________________________________________ Spice-devel mailing list Spice-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel
