My work has OpenSuse 11.1 systems (64-bit), and I notice that Fvwm
(2.6.26 and 2.6.27) crashes when I do the following
Pick WindowStyle MiniIcon vim.png
(basically set any icon which is not the window's current icon, and
locatable by Fvwm in the image path).
This leads to an immediate crash, with no error messages. The last
couple of lines in my .xsession-errors are:
XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0.0"
after 7141 requests (7000 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0.0"
after 102 requests (102 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
The same happens when I run Fvwm under VNC, as opposed to Fvwm under X
directly (so I'm guessing it's not server dependent). Once fvwm crashes
because of this error, it reload it (via commandline) without restarting
the VNC server causes fvwm to segfault.
I should also add that on my Gentoo laptop, I don't see the above error.
I checked to see if I had the issue and it does not crash my system at
all. I'm running debian (sid) amd64 bit. I am not sure what the issue
could be. My fvwm version is a cvs (2.5.28) from a month ago.
fvwm --version
fvwm 2.5.28 (from cvs) compiled on Jul 12 2009 at 20:59:11
with support for: ReadLine, RPlay, Stroke, XPM, PNG, SVG, Shape, XShm,
SM, Bidi text, Xinerama, XRender, XCursor, XFT, NLS
I'd suggest first trying the current cvs version and seeing if it
works there. If you still are getting crashes in the current cvs
version then provide some more info like compile options from fvwn
--version to help debug where the issue is.
Ok, I just checked with the CVS version. (I also noticed that the error
message I get after resetting the MiniIcon is a friendly "Segmentation
fault"). So I can confirm the crash on 2.5.26, 27 and 28CVS. Here's my
version info:
fvwm 2.5.28 (from cvs) compiled on Aug 18 2009 at 22:33:07 with

I myself am baffled by this, since on my Gentoo box, no matter what I do
I can't crash it. Any suggestions?

Is it only with .png files, try to use a xpm or a svg icon? I'd assume
you'd still crash but only thing I can think of. I would also suggest to
see if you can set the MiniIcon though a command like
Style "appname" MiniIcon file.png
Just thinking of things that could narrow down where the issue is.
