Segmentation fault on running rxconsole

I'am trying to run rxconsole in this tutorial ttp://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/Tutorials/UsingRxconsoleRoslaunch.

When I run rxconsole command, I get a message "Segmentation fault (core dumped)".

I'm using Fuerte.

roscore Result:

Okay to roscore looks to be starting up okay. What are you getting in the rxconsole terminal when is crashes?

Thank You for all answers. I've tried 2 times about my configuring of ROS Environment and ROS Workspace and I've found my mistake about Overlays with rosws procedure. Now I can do it.

In the "roscore" terminal - spawn roscore with "roscore &" then once it's started type, in the same terminal "rxconsole" - wondering if your environment might be a but shakey
