The step is to use the new ecosconfig tool! If that doesn't work, then 
this isn't good :-|. You could try running GDB on it to see if it 
indicates where the segfault is.

It could be some incompatibility with your system - you could try building 
it yourself. For that you need to check out the ecos-host CVS module (i.e. 
same command as before in the same place, but instead of specifying the 
"ecos" module, specify "ecos-host"). There's a readme in the host 
directory that is then created.

Also make sure you have all the system updates for red hat linux 7.1 - run 
up2date.

Our of interest I have used that ecosconfig on a red hat linux 7.1 machine 
without problems so it's not clear what the problem is.

Finally, please keep this on the ecos-discuss list in case other people 
have had the same problem. Plus we sell individual one-to-one commercial 
support - anything we do for free is at our disgression, and should be 
kept on the list!
