Hi everybody!

I experienced a problem developing my very first game, and maybe somebody
out there knows how to solve.
I compiled my program using DJGPP v. 2 and Allegro 2.1, it ran like a dream
until... it exit with the following message :

Shutting down Allegro
Exiting due to signal SIGSEGV
General Protection fault at eip=0000f678
....

Anybody may tell me what can cause that and how may I solve my problem. I
would like to know also where can I find documentation on error messages
like the above...

Thank you

Stex

(I am sorry, but I am a poor database programmer who's trying to convert to
real programming... Thank you all for cooperation...)
