[Bug 405188] Re: conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main()
This bug was fixed in the package conky - 1.7.2-0ubuntu1 --- conky (1.7.2-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low * New upstream release: - Improved Lua API (lua_read_parse has been removed in favour of the conky_parse() Lua API call). - Cairo and Imlib2 bindings for Lua. - Built-in weather support. - Added own_window_type panel. - Added border_inner_margin and border_outer_margin. The border_margin config option is now deprecated. - Added format_human_readable option. - Added fancy new 'temperature gradients'. - Several new variables such as $blink, $curl, $desktop, $entropy_perc, $swapfree, $to_byte and $top_io. - Comments in TEXT section are now possible. If necessary the comment character (#) can be escaped with a backslash (\#). - Added a different default configuration file for builds without X11. - Added io_perc, io_read and io_write to $top. - Alignment special variables can now be used with objects that span multiple lines. - Enhanced Imlib2 cache control. - $battery_short can now also display F (full), N (not present), E (empty) or U (unknown). - Counteless bug fixes (LP: #405701, LP: #405340, LP: #405188). * Complete overhaul of the packaging (LP: #294933, LP: #387209): 3 binary packages are now created: conky-cli, conky and conky-all. conky-cli is a basic package that could be used in servers or piped with dzen2, conky supports the most commonly used variables, conky-all includes almost all of the available support. Use conky-all if you are not sure of your needs. Some of the packaging changes include: - copyright is now in line with the new format specification - rules has been overly simplified - short/long descriptions have been updated - TODO is not installed anymore, lua.html is installed - README.Debian has been obsoleted - no change bump of Standards-Version - added NEWS and README.source - changed automake from automake1.10 to automake1.11, since the former has been obsoleted. -- Cesare Tirabassi norse...@ubuntu.com Tue, 25 Aug 2009 11:27:23 +0200 ** Changed in: conky (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed = Fix Released -- conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/405188 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 405188] Re: conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main()
I guess the problem with apport is that there are no debugging symbols available for a ppa package. Anyhow, if you can trigger the crash consistently you can at least tell us how you do that. If you downgrade to 1.7.1.1 you can then also provide a backtrace (you can simply downgrade using sudo aptitude install conky=1.7.1.1-0ubuntu1, next time you do an upgrade it will automatically upgrade to 1.7.2rc3 if the ppa is in your sources.list). It would be better if we can fix this before 1.7.2 is released. -- conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/405188 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Oops , i totally forgot about the downgrade ;) I tested this with Conky1.7.1.1.. I correct myself... I can reproduce this *very* consistently. To reproduce: 1: Run conky from terminal 2: Mount any external drive/pendrive 3: As soon as an external drive is mounted , conky crashes with Segmentation fault.

Yes, I can see where the problem is now, but to fix this is not trivial, it would need a redesign of the whole module. I'm not sure if you follow the Answers section Not on a daily basis, but your question is also linked to this problem. For the time being I can only advise you to redirect stderr when you call conky (for instance, launching conky with $conky 2.conky.err will log all errors to a file called .conky.err in the current directory). ** Changed in: conky (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Triaged -- conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/405188 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 405188] Re: conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main()
I'm not able to reproduce this. I took your configuration file, adapted it to my hardware, set up all the needed fonts, and even went as far as using an external script to mount/dismount several times various drives and partitions and never had any crash. The backtrace indicates that the crash is in a diskiograph call, which is then totally unrelated to fonts and the mounting of partitions, so I suspect that these aspects are not really related to your problem. As a test, can you try to just use the diskiograph portions of your configuration file and see if that alone will cause any crash? -- conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/405188 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 405188] Re: conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main()
I ran conky from the terminal, and when conky crashes it says , You dont need so many fonts sorry. So i figured it was due to the fonts. I have 3 partitions and if i attach another pendrive or external drive ,this happens, This was worse when i had more $fonts in the harddrive section , which used to crash every time i mounted a partition , Previously i had more $font for the trash too, this further gave the same fonts too many warning only I reduced the $font used in the conky and changed the behavior of the trash and now the crashes are less. To reproduce , mount 3 or more *extra* partitions/drives that are defined in the if_mounted , this happens fairly commonly , with more than 3 partitions only now, Or *add more $fonts* to either the if_mounted or the trash or for any if_* , this[too many fonts] will occur almost always when the if_ is either true or false and the output now needs more $fonts to display. I'v attached the output from the terminal, note the crash at the end. ** Attachment added: Conky crash http://launchpadlibrarian.net/29712330/Conky%20crash -- conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/405188 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 405188] Re: conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main()
Also the crash doesnt occur when the conky is restarted, with the same number of drives. only occurs when the if_* refreshes the conky and conky tries to use more $fonts. My present .conkyrc has few $fonts , i dont have the old conkyrc[which had different $fonts for diskI/O , size/free almost everything else in the conky had a different font], But you can easily reproduce it by adding more $fonts to the present if_* ones , or anywhere in the conkyrc will also do it. It should be fairly easy to reproduce. with more $fonts. Its just that , there seems to be a maximum limit for $font use. -- conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/405188 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The number of fonts you can use has already been raised in the version you are using (was 64 is now 256).

Oh... Ok... I thought it was the same since the crash happened during the mount dismount, i thought this was related to the fonts... As a test, can you try to just use the diskiograph portions of your configuration file and see if that alone will cause any crash? I dont understand ... you are asking me to run conky only using the diskIO portion and wait till any crash occurs on its own? or do i have to trigger the crash, if so how[simple mount/unmount]? -- conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/405188 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 405188] Re: conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main()
If the crash happens during a mount/dismount than it is because the problem is for one of the diskiograph which are if_mounted. I would like you to try and trigger the crash with the least possible configuration file, to be sure about exactly what is it that is causing it. I can't reproduce it so its pretty difficult to understand what the problem is and how to fix it. If you also use the -D option when you launch conky, this will print extra debug info to the console. If you can reliably trigger the crash then telling me how you do that and what are the boundary conditions (for instance if it is the same device that consistently cause the crash while mounted) could give me some hints. -- conky crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/405188 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
