Just followed the installation guide and I'm getting a segmentation fault. It seems that dozens of other people are having the issue, but I am yet to find a thread that repairs the problem.

Any Idea's? Thanks for whatever help I get.

So I'm responding to this so it won't get ignored. It's a common crash and no one so far has fixed it. Can anyone suggest how I might compile more information about this error?

anyone solve this yet ?
apparently it is a bug ...

The error was because a call to glGetintegerv asking for 
GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE was returning 0 which caused a floating point exception 
when trying to calculate the texture width. I added a check to the source 
code inside SOIL.c to see if it was 0 and if it was forced it to 4096 which 
worked (which seems to be a common max texture size), although I am not 
sure of the proper solution to this.
