seg fault in __libc_start_main () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6

[Anonymous]

Hello

whenever I do a function call to CUPS I get seg faults in
__libc_start_main () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6.

the functions specifically are

cupsprintFile()
and cupsgetdest()

when I comment these functions out my program runs fine.
My boss says there is a problem with my red hat Kernel.
Does anyone think elsewise?

I am not an awesome programmer so if anyone can give any suggestions what I can do more to find out, I will be very thankful.

I am using Kdevelop with Redhat 9 and kernel 2.4.20-30.9.
If anybody needs more info I will be happy to provide.

PLZ REPLY ...really need a helping hand.

Thanks
Ahmad Munir
