Hi all, I've been having trouble with E17 crashing on me when I try to change applications -- default, startup, IBar, etc. Previously, this would cause E to segfault, and I'd have to restart. No problem, other than the application no being changed. As of rev 62078 though, when this happens E crashes hard enough to drop back to the gdm screen. What's really nasty is that E will not start again; it hangs with the gdm background image in place, but no panel, dialogs, or what have you. Nor will Gnome or E16 start; same symptoms. I can log in via the console VTs, they work fine. To get X back, though, I have to do a complete reboot, after which I can log in normally.
I tried deleting the ~/.e directory, but that hasn't helped. I also tried killing the enlightenment and enlightenment_start processes, which sent me back to the gdm screen. Unfortunately, I still can't log in. So I did something I've never done before, I fired up gdb and tried to get a backtrace. I hope it's useful. If there's anything more I can do, let me know. You'll have to be pretty specific, though. Like I said, I've never used gdb before, so any instructions will have to be quite detailed. The backtrace is at <http://fpaste.org/TJLj/>. I hope this helps. For the record, I'm running Fedora 14 on a dual-core Athlon system with 2 gig of ram. --Dale -- Ivanova: Always finding the good in any situation, eh Captain? Sheridan: Absolutely. If I didn't, I might end up like you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BlackBerry® DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA The must-attend event for mobile developers.
