Houdini does not support Intel graphics. You can use Microsoft's software renderer by setting the HOUDINI_OGL_SOFTWARE enironment variable in the System dialog of the Control Panel (Advanced Settings, Environment Variables). This will give you basic OpenGL support.

Do you have a crashlog_<username> in the temp dir? If so, could you post the contents of that? It may help narrow down the cause of the crash.

I'm afraid I can't tell what the problem is from that particular stack trace. There is a new production build available (701), you might want to try that build. Also, try deleting your $HOME/houdini11.0 directory in case any settings are affecting Houdini.

Hi guys….i don't know if this helps someone. I was unable to run licence administrator, hkey.exe, and of course houdini. I had the idea to terminate objectdock….this was the end of all my problems.

I just want to say thank you for this solution, it fixed my ‘Fatal Error: Segmentation fault’ issue. It's too bad that I have to use Houdini with OGL, since my vid card is fairly powerful, but it's definitely better than nothing.

Thank you so much!

I've just installed the latest version of Houdini Apprentice (12.1.125) and I get the same fatal error. The program opens fine and I can navigate the menus and do different desktops, but as soon as I create something like a box or sphere, the error pops up and Houdini crashes.

I applied the fix suggested (I put in the suggested “HOUDINI_OGL_SOFTWARE” environment variable) and it is working.

The issue I have is: Houdini was working fine on my computer before with my previous version of 12. The developer who posted the fix said that Houdini doesn't work with Intel Graphics, but I've got an ATI Radeon in my laptop. Shouldn't that be able to run it - especially if it was working with the previous version of Houdini?

Is there some other solution that I could try? because everything seems very laggy with the current solution. a simple cube is fine, but dragging out a marquee select region in the context window (even without anything in the scene) is super choppy.

thanks for any insights!
