Hi,
you should probably check your limits. Try
ulimit -a
you'll probably have a coresize of 0 (SuSE's default I believe)
change it with
ulimit -c unlimited
(or some number, see also man ulimit).
This might help.

Hi all,
I am using Suse-linux-7.1 with default linux -ppc kernel on apple G4
machine.
SIGSEGV is never generating the core dump. though this signal is being
caught by the user process.
I also tried with "abort" call which should generate the core dump, but
this is also not working. The same program with abort call is generating
core dumps on other linux/unix platforms.
Can anybody tell me where is the problem?
Daljeet.

Core dumps are disabled by default for a SuSE install.
If you're using bash:
ulimit -c unlimited
or csh:
unlimit coredumpsize

What does 'ulimit -a' print ?
