Sygic crashes on a freshly flashed N900 - maemo.org

regulus | # 1 | 2013-12-12, 19:43 | Report

After a fresh reflash of my N900, I installed Sygic Mobile Maps 10 (the file was SetupMobileMaps.deb). I copied the MyDocs/Maps folder contents from previous installation (around 2 GB).
Unfortunately, the app crashes miliseconds after starting it (it doesn't even show anything). Any idea what could be wrong and how to fix it?

Try launching via x-term and pasting the output here. Might shed some light to what's wrong. Probably some missing dependency?

What qwazix said. Run it from x-term. I'm not sure about dependancies but Sygic requires a certain layout of its folders in MyDocs and will crash if the layout is different. It can be persuaded by examining/editing /usr/share/applications/hildon/smm10.desktop.

How do I launch it in X-Term? ./something?

By examining /usr/share/applications/hildon/smm10.desktop

Look for the Exec line.

Found out I forgot to copy /home/user/MyDocs/Drive folder contents. Now that I did that, the app still crashes, but in the Xterm, the output is:

set_stream 'ALSA Playback'
Segmentation fault

How should I proceed?

EDIT: Never mind. It turned out I also forgot to copy Res directory structure. I honestly had no idea which directories belonged to Sygic (other than /Maps). Seems to work fine now.

Where did SetupMobileMaps.deb come from?

My ex bought the maps when that was her phone. So the file remained there and I included it in my backups. Why?

I have SMM10 and I was wondering what would happen if I needed to reflash. So I wondered were the .deb came from.

Had the same dilemma for a year or so (and was kinda hoping I'd never have to find out).

Now I see that wasn't such a big deal after all.
As for the installation file -- I have no clue how it was delivered when she bought SMM. Maybe the setup file was downloaded from their account, and the maps were then added subsequently after the license was checked (pure speculation, though).
