[Bug 940603] Re: white box randomly shows up at top left corner blocking applications from using stuff under it
Interestingly I encountered the same issue when working on Xmir rootless support this week. The bug there was that the compositing window manager (now Xmir itself) failed to notice that some sub-windows are flagged as un-viewable in the X server, so those odd little windows need to explicitly not be displayed (unless they are marked as viewable). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/940603 Title: white box randomly shows up at top left corner blocking applications from using stuff under it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-animation-plugin/+bug/940603/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm still having this bug, with compiz 0.9.7.8-0ubuntu1.4. Sometimes, if chrome is used, animations are played in the rectangular area on the top left corner. It not just a blank rectangle.

I was able to re-install manually and reboot though :) I'm gonna blame a borked update on that one. or just the fact that my computer is an Alienware, so maybe there was some unity abduction and probing going on...

[Bug 940603] Re: white box randomly shows up at top left corner blocking applications from using stuff under it
>From what I've read in the comments, it looks like this is similar to a problem that arose years ago with the "system tray" as it was called. (The name "system tray" came from the "systray.exe" process on MS Windows which provided some icons for what was officially known as the notification area.) The old system tray in GNOME, following KDE's model, would occasionally fail to display icons in the tray; instead they were framed by the window manager—sawfish or sawmill at the time. It didn't always happen. It was unpredictable. The root of the problem was a race condition. KDE's protocol required a commitment (unspecified, as I recall) from the window manager to not try to manage windows somehow marked for the system tray. Applications would map the window, the window manager would ignore it, and the system tray would reparent it. GNOME's implementation did not include the window manager commitment. Applications would map the window and both the window manager and the system tray would try to reparent it. The outcome was determined by whichever process won the race to reparent. The subsequent freedesktop.org system tray protocol eliminated the race condition by not mapping the window destined for it before the reparenting was complete. Instead of mapping, clients were expected to send a ClientMessage to the tray. After that the XEMBED protocol took over. It sounds like chromium is mapping when it should not be mapping. Searching through the code right now I've seen at least two places where they call XMapWindow during initialization of some objects. I must be missing something because I haven't found embedding.

It's not a definite fix, but feedback about compiz 0.9.7.6 would be most valuable. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/940603 Title: white box randomly shows up at top left corner blocking applications from using stuff under it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-core/+bug/940603/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 940603] Re: white box randomly shows up at top left corner blocking applications from using stuff under it
same as #121. I don't know if it has something to do with JavaScript popups generated by Chromium extensions like the one I use : Mail Checker Plus for Gmail & Facebook Notifier. It happened to me several times, when a new popup appears (Gmail or Facebook ). The bug applies to Chromium and Google Chrome in my case. Let's add that even disabling these extensions, browsing websites with Flash content that prompt the user to interact with some popups, may trigger the white box. The size of the white box I get, is different every time, from a very small rectangle to a whole screen blank box. I also believe it is a compiz Issue, well at least, the way Compiz handles these popups.

Just as a quick "me too" here.. I'm running precise with current updates with focus animations set to None and I just had the white box occur. I have a gmail notifier installed that lets me see message counts and click through to chrome+gmail from the messaging menu. When I did that and a new chrome tab opened (on my right monitor) I got a giant white box the same size as the chrome tab on my left monitor. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/940603 Title: white box randomly shows up at top left corner blocking applications from using stuff under it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-core/+bug/940603/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For what it's worth, I don't think this is fixed still. I believe I tried Sam's latest PPA and still got the issue. I will update again and give it another go, though, to see if it is fixed.

So we see this consistently, and it seems to happen (sometimes) when Chrome pops up a new window (I see it when gchat creates a mole, or when a link opens in a new tab, though not always). The size of the white box is the size of whatever window was being created. The white box is not a window; X events go to whatever is "underneath" as if it weren't there, and xwininfo doesn't see it. Restarting compiz reliably makes it go away (but has other annoying side effects, like making the upper-right icons no longer responsive to input).

[Bug 940603] Re: white box randomly shows up at top left corner blocking applications from using stuff under it
Ok all. I'd like to see if this is a window or something else. Since we can't xwininfo it, I wrote a small plugin which allows you to navigate to a window and dump its contents. lp:~smspillaz/+junk/sdump So you'll need to install compiz-dev and then bzr branch lp:~smspillaz/+junk/sdump cd sdump mkdir build cd build cmake .. make && make install And then go into ccsm and enable the sdump plugin (protip, you can prevent the crash on enabling plugins by going into advanced settings, disabling auto-sorting and selecting sdump from the left list and moving it to the right list). Once you've done that and manage to reproduce the white window, use super-n and super-p to move the blue rectangle to the white window (if possible) and then press super-d to output its contents to a terminal or .xsession-errors.

I confirm the focus thing. Running Unity (Precise AMD64). I ve found out a value of N/A in the animation effect list.

Something's certainly not right with that key, though I can't yet tell whether this has an influence on the issue (or the other one in bug 944701): *) Focus Effect → 'N/A' This sets the key '/apps/compiz-1/plugins/animation/screen0/options/focus_effects' to '[animation:Fade]'. The effect seems to work, maybe causes the bug. It's the Unity compiz profile default. *) Focus Effect → 'Fade' Sets the key '/apps/compiz-1/plugins/animation/screen0/options/focus_effects' to '[animation:Focus Fade]'. The effect doesn't seem to work correctly, I get a flicker on every focus change.

I also had an "N/A" effect set in CCSM/Effects/Animations/Focus Animation. Instead of deleting the entry completely, I just assigned an available effect (Fade) instead of N/A and re-enabled Animations afterwards. I dunno what I had set before I upgraded to 12.04, but it seems the previous effect was removed and so it became N/A? I know for sure from multiple testing in the past days - when I disabled the Animations Effect completely, then the problem was gone.

Because after I came back from work (I left my home computer open), I got the weather indicator crash and the white space over the dash..before, when I left home, I had the weather indicator working and no white box..and I left Chrome and Thunderbird closed, only Banshee was open but not working.. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/940603 Title: white box randomly shows up at top left corner blocking applications from using stuff under it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-core/+bug/940603/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
