Hi David,  
  
  
  
Can you describe how to reproduce the crashes you’re seeing? A member of our team has ran some quick tests with the 3.2 SDK PVRShaman on Ubuntu 12.04, but hasn’t encountered any instability.  
  
  
  
You can ignore the PVRTC decompression warnings. I’ve filed BRN47660 for them to be hidden from users in a future version of the tool.  
  
  
  
Thanks,  
  
Joe

HI David,  
  
  
  
I’ve filed the Ubuntu 12.04 instability issues as BRN47703 in our tracker. Our 3.3 SDK is imminent though, so its too late for a fix to make it into our initial release.  
  
  
  
Thanks,  
  
Joe
