Subject: mp3blaster unusable under virtual console, works ok in x-terminal

Date: Thu, 21 Jun 2001 02:17:55 -0500

Package: mp3blaster
Version: 1:2pre3.0p8-1
Severity: important
Tags: sid


When run in a virtual console, [F1]-[F9] do not work as described,
and [F4] causes a segmentation fault. mp3blaster is unusable in virtual 
console

In any sort of x-terminal, it works ok.

I'm pretty sure it works in the console. I just tested it again. And F4
works as well. If you are sure this happens, can you follow-up to the
bug and provide more information, like a strace log?

Thank you,
Carlos.

Subject: Strace log of mp3blaster on the console

Date: Thu, 4 Jul 2002 12:53:17 -0500

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: mp3blaster
Version: 1:3.1.1-3
Severity: Important

Kernel: 2.4.18
libc6: 2.2.5-7

I just installed mp3blaster for some console work, and I came accross this
bug.  I've attached a strace log of a very short mp3blaster session.

Order of events:

~# strace -o mp3blaster.log mp3blaster
F1
F2
F3
F5
F6
F7
F8
F4<segfault>

Hope this helps!

Hi Lance,

it looks like the bug is depending on the TERM variable. If TERM is set to
linux, mp3blaster runs fine for me. If TERM is set to vt100, i get the
exact same behaviour as you (i.e. nothing happens on f-keys except for F4
which crashes mp3blaster).

Thanks.  I haven't used mp3blaster lately, but just now when I changed
TERM to linux, it continued to have the same problem.  Likely I'm doing
something wrong, but since I don't use mp3blaster any more, it's hard to
get motivated to look at it more closely.

Package: mp3blaster
Version: 1:3.2.0-6
Followup-For: Bug #101735

is_audiofile() segfaults in strcmp when passing in a null pointer.
Attached patch tests for null. Note that this does not fix handling
the function-keys on vt100 proper.

vt100's don't have function keys.  They do have 4 keys across the top of the
number keypad which can (often are) treated in that manner.
