</div>The gdb log seems to be missing any backtrace. You actually need to<br>
stop the program somehow to get a backtrace--that means either crash it,<br>
or interrupt it (with Ctrl-C) when it's locked up or doing whatever is<br>
wrong, or set a breakpoint in gdb if you know exactly where you want it<br>
to stop.<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Debugging#Executing_the_application_under_gdb" target="_blank">http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Debugging#Executing_the_application_under_gdb</a><br>
"When the application crashes or is terminated, gdb will automatically<br>
output a backtrace to the file |gdb.txt| in the current working<br>
directory. If the MythTV program appears to be locked up and does not<br>
crash, press CTRL-C to create the backtrace file."<br>
<br>
(Ctrl-C also applies when it's not locked, but is doing whatever it<br>
shouldn't be doing)<br>
<br>
As far as posting the logs, you can either a) post to a site that<br>
doesn't have the file size limits that mailing lists have (such as<br>
dropbox or google docs or some pastebin or something) and then provide a<br>
link in your e-mail or b) compress the files before sending the e-mail.<br>
Ideally, you'll post somewhere else (rather than compressing and sending<br>
as an attachment) where people can access the content without having to<br>
download a file, save it, uncompress it, then open it to look.<br>
