[MPlayer-users] [OT] -- can't make mplayer dump core

[Håkon Alstadheim]

I was thinking It was time to start giving something back to mplayer, by 
collecting corefiles and backtraces when mplayer says "killed by signal 
11". For the life of me I am unable to get mplayer to produce a core 
dump. When i launch bash from the same command-line and do "kill -11 
<pid-of-bash>" it says (core dumped), and a file named 
core.<pid-of-bash> is there as expected. No such thing with mplayer.

I have done "ulimit -c unlimited". There is about 35 Gigs free on the 
disk. Current dir is owned and writable by the current user. I've run 
versions of mplayer compiled with --enable-debug=1, --enable-debug=3, 
and without any --enable-debug. Same same.

Advice?
