How to track down what causes "segmentation fault" if no errors?


I have been trying for like 2wks to figure out why I keep getting seg faults in Viper WM from slackbuilds

I have it on 6 diff versions of slack, 12.2-current
and also in debian and arch

In all of them VWM crashes with seg fault?!

I really like it alot and need to figure out what the issue is?

Thanks
