[Bug 47455] Re: KDM detected memory corruption
the patch breaks kdm because it enforces a hard-coded $HOME, while kdm sets up its own one dynamically - it's not my fault that the admin and the system have the same user id on unix. :) the patch is utterly misguided. not any applications, but sudo should be fixed. for su, the x-aware variant sux exists (dunno whether it handles ICEAUTHORITY properly - if not, that's another thing to fix). the same can be done with sudo, either directly in sudo or also with a wrapper script. -- KDM detected memory corruption https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/47455 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a direct subscriber. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

[Bug 47455] Re: KDM detected memory corruption
Currently using Edgy with xen. Came across a lock up on my monitor. Upon checking the logs, I found similar messages. First off, "Can't open default user face" is because the default faces are missing. Specifically, I did the following:cd /usr/share/apps/kdm/faces/ ln -s ../pics/users/root1.png root.face.icon ln -s ../pics/users/default2.png .default.face.icon
Issue solved on that message. Earlier, I had no issues with kdm (or was not aware of any :) ). But when looking though the log files, I noticed that the corruption occurs in the tls arena:*** glibc detected *** -:0: double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x08076c68 *** === Backtrace: = /lib/tls/i686/cmov/nosegneg/libc.so.6[0xb7df52ad] /lib/tls/i686/cmov/nosegneg/libc.so.6(__libc_free+0x84)[0xb7df5434] /lib/libpam.so.0(_pam_free_data+0x65)[0xb7ee22c5] /lib/libpam.so.0(pam_end+0x39)[0xb7ee1c79] So I did the standard fix for Xen and the tls; basically, I moved it out of the way:mv /lib/tls /lib/tls.disabled
This seems to get rid of the kdm mem corrptn issue.

It appears that the kdm mem corruption problem is not gone. It still comes up, but is no longer causing an issue. But did solve the lock-up as being a swap issue with Kubuntu.

Ditto on Feisty... the two error messages occur at different times, however: "Can't open default user face" happens as KDM is opening (and removing my ~/.face.icon has nothing to do with it).

[Bug 47455] Re: KDM detected memory corruption
I have had this problem for some time: I upgraded from Breezy to Dapper KDE wouldn't work at all! That turned out to be a problem with the Indic, Thai and other Asian fonts that had been installed along the way in the upgrade. Removing them caused KDM to behave itself. I had the user face problem etc. Anyway I deleted the .face files and that went away. The memory corruption report has remained. Still the memory corruption lines kept appearing in the log. Eventually I went to the Kcontrol panel and changed the KDM fonts from "Sans Serif" to "Bitstream Vera Sans". Behold no more memory corruption problems!!! Logs have been clear for a day. I also had a terrible memory leak in X too. That seems to be gone. My suggestion is that there is a certain intolerance in KDM towards some fonts... Also other users work on my machine via LTSP.
