[Bug 585137] Re: cheese crashes on startup
Closing the bug again as there has been no update about the bug. I would like to remind again that such bugs are better handled upstream, Kindly file a bug in: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=cheese We dont make major changes in Ubuntu for Cheese , so such issues are better handled upstream directly. Even if the bug is re-opened with more info here , we need to forward it upstream to get it fixed. ;-) ** Changed in: cheese (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- cheese crashes on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/585137 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 585137] Re: cheese crashes on startup
I have the exact same problem on a recently upgraded from Karmic to Lucid (Cheese worked perfectly in Karmic). I resintalled cheese but this did not help.

[Bug 585137] Re: cheese crashes on startup
I am reopening this bug because the problem has reappeared. I am currently running the mainline 2.6.35-rc2 kernel, so that may have something to do with it, but Kamoso works just fine. Also, my initial investigation suggests that part of the problem is that Cheese is not dealing with an error condition correctly. I will continue my investigation. ** Changed in: cheese (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New -- cheese crashes on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/585137 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 585137] Re: cheese crashes on startup
I figured out how to get the build I wanted (it turned out to be obvious: set a CFLAGS environment variable before running the configure script), but when I switched back to the open-source radeon driver, the bug was still gone! I would love to know why it didn't work initially, but whatever. It works now.

[Bug 585137] Re: cheese crashes on startup
Thanks for following up.Closing bug report. I'm not sure I know the answer to the "how to convince the cheese build system to build binaries without optimization" You can try contacting the upstream devs regarding this : https://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=cheese or you can file a bug upstream.

[Bug 585137] Re: cheese crashes on startup
The problem seems to have gone away after I switched to fglrx for the video driver. I think I can figure out the root cause of this crash if someone tells me how to convince the cheese build system to build binaries without optimization so that I don't get that annoying "value optimized out" stuff in the backtrace. That will probably be easier than having someone else who doesn't have access to the hardware try to guess what's going wrong from a backtrace, especially if the problem turns out not to be in cheese itself. -- cheese crashes on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/585137 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
