    Dear Alhishek:
        Well, I usually extract, then go either exttosim or exttospice and look
    for GDSB connections of my transistors that dont make sense. In a small
    layout that is easy but gets to be a larger effort the larger the circuit
    is. I believe that Tim is recently advocating the use of netgen, which is a
    utility for LVS that he is working on to compare a schematic to an extracted
    magic netlist. You might download that and look at its usuage. I believe
    that it will become the LVS tool with magic soon.
    
        On your segfault question, by all means please post the details so we
    may understand them and help you out as much as possible.
    
    Charles
