Summary 0000945: Nightlies hang on linux / ubuntu 10.04 and others
Description I'm trying to use the 3.7 linux-x86 nightlies but Slicer hangs on startup. Have tried several 3.7 nightlies from 7/24-8/5 and the issue occurs in all of them. This is not present in the 3.6.1 nightly (8/5) or the 3.6 stable (6/10) - those start just fine.

./Slicer3 and "Slicer3 -t" usually hangs on "Discovered IA_FEMesh Loadable Module (adding to cache)"
--no_modules and --no_module_cache hangs on "Initializing Models Module".
--test_mode just hangs

I should clarify that the splash window still redraws, so by "hang" I mean that startup doesn't go any further but appears not to be totally crashed. Slicer3-real cpu utilization is reported by top as Note: 0000090%, and I have let it sit for several minutes with no further progress in each case. I initially thought this might be an issue only with two recently (<1mo) upgraded computers - old library conflict or something. However, the same happens on a clean install (this morning).

 Well, the clean build runs fine so that is a start.

I moved all modules out, but Slicer immediately exits (message below)
unless several modules are present:
CommandLine, ScriptedModule, SlicerDaemon, Volumes, SlicerVolumes, and
all of the tractography .so modules in lib/Slicer3/Modules.

After replacing only those modules above, Slicer runs to splash but the
hang behavior is the same (stuck on Volumes module).

 Shoot - well, I'm not sure how to debug this one remotely. It does not happen on my linux machines. From the stack trace it looks like there is a render being done before the render window is fully initialized. I thought that meant that RequestRender is being called (perhaps indirectly) from a module's constructor and then getting 'update'd from the splash screen.

Can you do me a favor and send the gdb stack trace from the hang with --no-spash is specified?

Thanks,
Steve

Sounds like the problem I had a month or so ago on Fedora.

 Here's the trace with --no_splash, "bt2". Bug report here: http://www.na-mic.org/Bug/view.php?id=945. [^] For what it's worth, I've tried three distros now and have gotten the same result: Ubuntu 10.04, Fedora 11, and Knoppix 6.2 (running in a virtualbox). A student here has seen same thing in a 32-bit ubuntu 10.04 install on virtualbox on a 64-bit mac.

 I plan to review this with Isaiah on his laptop in the next few days.
