Segmentation fault with pthreads

Hi, i''m having a bit of trouble with pthreads. The following code causes a segmentation fault on the line pthread_create void* Proc(void* pParam) { printf("In thread...\n"); return NULL; } int main(int argc, char** argv) { pthread_t id; printf("Starting...\n"); pthread_create(&id,NULL,Proc,NULL); printf("Started...\n"); usleep(1000000); return 0; } Output: [steve@server test]# ./test Starting... Segmentation fault [steve@server test]# Anyone know whats causing this problem? I thought it might be that the attr variable can;t be NULL, but all the docs i''ve found say it can be NULL to use the default values, and i can''t find any useful information about initializing the structure. Cheers, Steve
