Well, only if there's somebody with the same problem on a similar box, I
guess.

Other than that you need to provide some more information, in particular
start a debugger like gdb with the executable, then run the app and when
it crashes get the backtrace. This would look similar to the following

gdb --args python ~/python2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/eric3/eric3.py
run
<segfault>
bt

Of course with another path to the eric3.py file (the python file for
eric3). Also if you installed PyQt+Sip by compiling it yourself and not
by distribution packages, please rebuild both using the -u switch to get
more information from the backtrace. Also if Slackware provides a
qt-*-dbg package, this would be helpful too. (or compile Qt with the
-debug switch if you compiled it yourself).
