Segmentation fault happens when creating a BrachioGraph instance #99

nebukadezza commented 3 years ago

My apologies if I'd overlook something obvious. I've strictly followed the software installation steps, but when I've created a BrachioGraph, I got a segmentation fault:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo pigpiod pi@raspberrypi:~ $ source env/bin/activate (env) pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd BrachioGraph/ (env) pi@raspberrypi:~/BrachioGraph $ python Python 3.7.3 (default, Jul 25 2020, 13:03:44) [GCC 8.3.0] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

from brachiograph import BrachioGraph Segmentation fault (env) pi@raspberrypi:~/BrachioGraph $

The host is running a Raspbian Buster. I appreciate any suggestion on how to get out here, please.

Well, I Googled that and all the answers say it's a filesystem corruption fault. I would reflash the SD card. I too am working through this project and have got as far as drawing a box. I've also managed to get a couple of clipart images of Andy Capp and Donald Duck drawn. Now I'm struggling with the calibration!

Thank you @john104433 , indeed it was the SD card, I've flashed an another one, and it works that way, it makes nice fuzzy lines on paper.
