'You may need to use proprietary drivers for the graphics card.' This is Linux: there are no proprietary drivers for the ...

I just built Audacity (1.3.10) for the first time. It crashes on start, reporting a segfault, just after it tells me I have to specify a directory for temporary files. /var/log/messages contains: Jan 11 21:30:57 randytool acpid: client connected from 26854[0:100] Jan 11 21:30:57 randytool acpid: 1 c...
