Can you repost that stack trace again, please.  But do not truncate it.
I would like to see what was being executed at the time of the crash.

With regards to the gnomine game, it is probably compiled without
debugging
symbols.  When insight starts it looks for "main" but if the program was
not
built with "-g" it won't find it and will display an empty screen.  I
guess
we need a "no debugging symbols" warning box....
