disassembling core file

hi,
using core file ( stripped version of binary) i'm able to get backtrace. but i'm unable to figure out the root cause by looking at the code.

core file has been generated by SEGV. i'm able to disassemble the functions but i do not know how to interpret it. pls suggest.

thanks,
