Hi, While launching gsportx from Fedora, I get the following:

[zach@localhost gsport_0.31]$ ./gsportx

Segmentation fault (core `dumped)`

I tried starting the program in GDB and get:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
dev_video_init () at xdriver.c:618
618		new_gc.font = g_text_FontSt->fid;
(gdb) c
Continuing.
Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
The program no longer exists.
(gdb) 

What can be done to fix this?

I had the same problem on a Raspberry Pi 3 B+; see https://github.com/david-schmidt/gsport/issues/4 for details. Unfortunately, Fedora doesn't have the same packaging system as Debian, AFAIK, so you might have to find your own solution.

I have Fedora/Centos/RHEL packages you can use. They are built and hosted in Fedora COPR. https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/gregw/apple2/

To use:

sudo dnf copr enable gregw/apple2
sudo dnf install gsport gsport-internet_starter_kit

A desktop file and GNOME Software info is included.
