I had the same problem with printing... but songwrite didn't crash, it simply displayed a window saying that something failed. I just installed songwrite, run it and tried to print something...
After clicking on the preview-print button, the command line output was this: ================== [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ songwrite /usr/bin/../share/songwrite/song.py:1352: DeprecationWarning: 'b' format requires -128 <= number <= 127 END_TRACK = struct.pack(">bbb", 0xFF, 0x2F, 0x00) * Songwrite * Lilypond version is 2.10.25... * Songwrite * Loading module for Lilypond 2.2 /usr/bin/../share/songwrite/song.py:522: DeprecationWarning: 'b' format requires -128 <= number <= 127 (-1, None, struct.pack(">bb" , 0xC0 + channel.id, self.instrument), self), # Instrument selection /usr/bin/../share/songwrite/song.py:523: DeprecationWarning: 'b' format requires -128 <= number <= 127 (-1, None, struct.pack(">bbb", 0xB0 + channel.id, 0x5B, self.reverb )), # Reverb /usr/bin/../share/songwrite/song.py:524: DeprecationWarning: 'b' format requires -128 <= number <= 127 (-1, None, struct.pack(">bbb", 0xB0 + channel.id, 0x5D, self.chorus )), # Chorus /usr/bin/../share/songwrite/song.py:525: DeprecationWarning: 'b' format requires -128 <= number <= 127 (-1, None, struct.pack(">bbb", 0xB0 + channel.id, 0x07, self.volume / 2)), # Volume /usr/bin/../share/songwrite/song.py:649: DeprecationWarning: 'b' format requires -128 <= number <= 127 return (self.time - start_time, mesure, struct.pack(">bbb", 0x90 + channel.id, self.value, self.volume), self), (self.time - start_time + self.duration, mesure, struct.pack(">bbb", 0x80 + channel.id, self.value, self.volume)) Running 'cd /tmp/tmplu8xXD; lilypond-book -o /tmp/tmplu8xXD /tmp/tmplu8xXD/gtab.lytex' lilypond-book (GNU LilyPond) 2.10.25 Reading /tmp/tmplu8xXD/gtab.lytex...
