[SOLVED with MGA3] Digikam doesn't start (Mageia 4)

Postby soundmanbe » Feb 3rd, '14, 01:41

After an upgrade from Mga3 to Mga4, Digikam is not working at all. After starting it, the system activity report a +/- 46% or CPU usage for it but nothing happend.
Any idea?

Do you use the nvidia driver, and if so, which version?
Code: Select all
rpm -qa | grep nvidia

Also see https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12021
Does it run when you run it from the terminal, or via prepended
Code: Select all
strace -f

I've already posted it before, see https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12021 - it's a bug with the nvidia driver.
