Bug#235914: xlibmesa-dri: fontglide screensaver totally locks up machine every time

Unfortunately one of them called "fontglide" totally locks up the system. I have no real evidence that dri is the problem, just a hunch. The bug certainly isn't in the xlibmesa-dri package, as that's only involved with OpenGL applications. Reassigning to xserver-xfree86, please mail this bug the information described in the XF86Config(7) manpage. The problem might still be related to the DRI though; try not enabling it to verify that. Interesting. I disabled dri on the M9 machine and the problem changed from total machine lockup to merely crashing out of X.None of the log files had much interesting to say. syslog said: Mar 3 19:59:04 debian gconfd (jlb-1036): Received signal 15, shutting down cleanly Mar 3 19:59:04 debian gconfd (jlb-1036): Exiting Mar 3 19:59:04 debian gdm[994]: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0 Mar 3 19:59:04 debian kernel: apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x0b (Driver version 1.16ac) Mar 3 19:59:04 debian kernel: apm: overridden by ACPI.

Right, running glxgears or some simple cheesy app is not enough. You must POUND the hell out of the driver with an intensive 3D application, such as Quake III or something else intensive. It may take anywhere from a few seconds to 30-45 minutes for the crash to occur, so this isn't the type of problem that someone can configure the driver to use 1600x1200, fire it up for 10 seconds, run glxgears and say "hmm, well it works for me".

Thank you and I appologize for my inabilty to locate that information on
my own. I was still curious as to the change of behavior between
versions of XFree86 prior to 4.3. I examined the change log available
at:
http://cvsweb.xfree86.org/cvsweb/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/CHANGELOG?rev=HEAD
In the changelog I found:
"675. Fix some problems with the addition of multi-layout scheme to
xkb: some keys that aren't 'alphabetic' should be treated as
such to allow CapsLock+Shift working as expected; sometimes it
is required to load an include file more than once due to
multi-layout configuration, also fix some typos (#5545, Ivan Pascal).
674. XKB programable 'special combinations' (such as Ctrl+Alt+)
also send usual key evants (press and release). Although the
keysym generated in this case is NoSymbol such events can confuse
some applications (#5546, Ivan Pascal)."
And seeming most relevant to this bug:
"672. Temporarily enable the hard-coded Ctrl-Alt-Backspace terminate
sequence until a better fallback mechanism is implemented (Egbert
Eich)."
These appear to be under the XFree86 4.2.99.3 (21 December 2002)
release.
If setting the type to TWO_LEVEL works without breaking anything (as 672
implies) it would seem this, or the previous behavior of treating BKSP
as a regular key[1] should be the default behavior.
[1] /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/us on XFree86 Version 4.2.1.1 (Debian
4.2.1-12.1 20031003005825 [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
key {[ BackSpace ] };
You've empowered me with the knowledge of how to make the changes
myself. I don't know enough about XFree86 to determine if the fallback
mechanism that caused the original hardcoding of the Ctrl+Alt-Backspace
has been implimented. If it has I would suspect the hardcoding of being
a bug, as it is no longer what the developers intended. If the fallback
feature has not been implemented... perhaps this should be wishlist?
Anyhow I leave it to your providence as a DD and I again thank you for
your forthcoming help,
