Hi all, I am new to the mailing list and to mailing lists in general. I saw that I should introduce myself so here goes I am a 21 year old programmer from australia, I am totally blind and have used emacspeak for around 2 years now. I am currently studying computer science at university and mainly use emacs for all of my writing when possible. I've recently had an issue with emacspeak crashing when I start emacs. A few months ago when version 53 was released I tried to upgrade however it caused emacs to crash on startup around 50% of the time. I reverted to version 52.0 until the other day when I decided to try upgrade again to version 54.0 and just deal with the crashes. Yesterday however I attempted to open emacs 4 times in a row with it crashing each time so decided to follow it up further. This only happens with emacspeak53.0 or 54.0, previous versions have never crashed before. Here is the errors printed to the terminal from when it crashed those 4 times : $emacs Emacs-x86_64-10_14(2360,0x700009d2e000) malloc: *** error for object 0x70000a5307e8: pointer being f reed was not allocated Fatal error 11: Segmentation fault Abort trap: 6 $emacs Emacs-x86_64-10_14(2433,0x700003241000) malloc: *** error for object 0x7ffee6db5200: pointer being f reed was not allocated Emacs-x86_64-10_14(2433,0x10a8415c0) malloc: *** error for object 0x7ffee6db5310: pointer being free d was not allocated Emacs-x86_64-10_14(2433,0x700003241000) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug Emacs-x86_64-10_14(2433,0x10a8415c0) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug Fatal error 6: Abort trap Abort trap: 6 $emacs Emacs-x86_64-10_14(2497,0x70000ce9d000) malloc: *** error for object 0x7ffee91b45a0: pointer being f reed was not allocated Emacs-x86_64-10_14(2497,0x70000ce9d000) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug Fatal error 4: Illegal instruction Abort trap: 6 $emacs Emacs-x86_64-10_14(2576,0x700002fcd000) malloc: *** error for object 0x7ffee07fcac8: pointer being f reed was not allocated Emacs-x86_64-10_14(2576,0x700002fcd000) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug Fatal error 4: Illegal instruction Abort trap: 6 Do you know if there is anything I can do to fix this or is it a bug in emacspeak? It seems to me as though it is attempting to access a freed object. Has anyone else had this issue? -- Best regards Isaac
