Thank you both! For now I’m using the HTML report, which is great.

That sounds like a problem with the way glibc releases memory and sounds like it is trying to delete a pointer that no longer exists. This will probably work itself out if you update your glibc library or wait for a security update?

You can get around that problem by just using Hardinfo to generate a HTML report.

I don’t know if anyone else has this problem, but I find that with Hardinfo, the first item I load comes up fine, but when I load another, it crashes, and I get this error:
*** glibc detected *** hardinfo: munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer: 0x0839d590 ***

Other than that minor problem, this seems to be a great program.
