Liteide Segmentation fault under certain condition

[Tong Sun]

Hi, 

This is the first time I'm trying Liteide. It works in my home machine but not in my VM at work. They both have Ubuntu 18.04. So I guess the "Segmentation fault" is specific to my VM. 

At first, there was an reported error of:

QXcbConnection: XCB error: 145 (Unknown), sequence: 171,

However, I get that fixed from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51218417/. 

So now, Liteide is failing with just  "Segmentation fault" without giving any other prompts: 

$ strace -f -o /tmp/strace.out liteide

Segmentation fault

I've posted the whole strace log to https://pastebin.com/hujPWAaf, 

and here are the last few lines:

it seems the poll times out then liteide is killed because of SIGSEGV, after several writes:

A SIGSEGV is an error(signal) caused by an invalid memory reference or a segmentation fault. You are probably trying to access an array element out of bounds or trying to use too much memory.

Again, I understand that it is specific to my own odd situation, but I'm still hoping it can be identified/fixed someday. 

Or maybe my VM just doesn't have enough memory?

$ free -m

              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available

Mem:           2804         470         667           1        1665        2145

Swap:          1521           0        1521

What's the minimum/recommended liteide needs? 

PS, my specific VM

- Window 10 Host

- Ubuntu 18.04 VM

- 2.8G total Mem, used only <500M.

- MobaXTerm X11 Server, Personal Edition
