True, but it's even better to be up front and admit you don't know right from the start and ask for help. I admit I haven't got a clue about core dumps and segmentation faults, but then I'm not a programmer. Neither am I an electrician. But unlike IMM, I do not try to show off and give bad and sometimes dangerous advice on matters I know very little about.
It would be nice if we had a rule that everybody totally ignores everything he says, and then maybe he might just go away.

Reminds me of the carp (ing) in uk.env.cons. I'd kill-file at least 3 posters from uk.d-i-y, if I could. Two you've mentioned, the third purports to be of the female sex and seemingly contributes only waffle and OT tittle-tattle.

I know. You give it on a subject you earn a living at. Appalling!
Agreed...
But, apropos of very little, it's quite amusing that modern UNIX-ish systems still have that error message...
It comes from the first public UNIX (1976) which ran on the PDP-11. That machine had segmented memory (not paging), hence 'segmentation fault' and of course it had real core, not semiconductor, memory. Yet the message persists!

Allegedly, early unices have the amusing message "lp: on fire" as a catch-all error message for printers. It's made it into the Linux kernel:
I never saw that one when I started back in 1976...but then we didn't have a proper printer...! Just a DECWriter...

I think he posts here through a need to belong, and just being ignored isn't going to stop him

He's no more than an attention seeker, and is too stupid to realise he's as welcome as a dose of the clap, and about as useful.
My Arse!
Blimey, a youngbie. Don't you remember the gatling guns? (Teletype 43 and earlier)
C'mon. If you haven't used an ASR33 - with tape reader and punch - then you've missed an entire education.
Ah... the smell of warm oil, the jamming of the mechanism.

No, that's just when I started UNIX. Remember it NEEDS a lower case peripheral. The DECWriter was the first lower case thing we got.
Oh, ASR-33s....! Used those a LOT earlier... CLATTER! JAM! WHINE!
:D so true
It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember "IMM" saying something like:
Pah; the only thing you know about US PoWs in Korea is what you read in "The Manchurian Candidate".
I do. I did see North Korea play football once. And I saw South Korea play football in the last World cup on TV. Is this the stuff for a spy novel writer?

Except that if your first suggestion is true then ignoring him will mean that his need is no longer being satisfied here and so he will move on.
