Kees, unfortunately, this seems to be a difficult bug.
I have installed Linux Mint 17.1 KDE 64bit, fully updated with
apt-get update
, and I can install APP 1.033-4 without problems and also do all fases up until stacking with 7 Canon 6D CR2s in this case. screenshot 1
I have set the star analyser to find as much stars as possible, see screenshot 2
I do notice the CR2 loader is taking a big memory heap, I’ll look into that further now.
One possible reason could be, the OS is running out of your RAM memory ( the OS ? /8000 at top left) and your Linux OS doesn’t have swap enabled? If swap is enabled, the OS should be able to handle this, At least I think so.
– my plan of attack to solve this, I need to optimize the CR2 loader, memory management seems to be off there….
