epsxe for Linux segfaults when I attempt to run any game from an ISO.

Here's my command-line output:

[email protected] thad $ Removing empty directories ...
./patches
./snap
./sstates

 * Memory handlers init.
 * ePSXe: PSX BIOS loaded [/home/thad/.epsxe/bios//SCPH7502.BIN].

I'm running 1.6.0-r3 on Gentoo Linux on an Athlon XP 1900+.

Running a game from CD works just fine; here's my output when I do that:

So it segfaults there, too, but not until I intentionally quit the program.

Any ideas what could be causing the problem?

Read the readmes budled with pete's mesagl, as it fails when opening the gpu. IIRC there was some incompatibility with some thread libs, that are documented on the readmes. Sorry for not having a full answer, but i think with a little research you'll be able to find it, probably just changing the libpthread version (or whatever the lib file was called ) will work.
