The result is a Mac-like launcher on a Windows desktop (& the launcher will the launch my server's linux apps.) Extremely cool. Here is a link to my setups, screenshots and some resources: http://www.daltrey.org/faqs/remote/main.php#xpra Below is a further report on the winswitch/xpra crash I am experiencing (I sent it earlier from the wrong email address, so it is stuck in the moderator cue ...) Actually, even with the ffmpeg installed, I still get the crashes. Does not happen every time, but I am not certain what is the difference. Here is the last sequence: 1. reboot computer. 2. start winswitch 3. start application "Caligra KDE help" in Xpra via winswitch menu. (This was just a random selection.) 4. Close Caligra help window by clicking x in corner. 5. An xpra icon remains in tray -- not sure what these are, but I routinely have one xpra session in tray that does not seem to be related to any actual session. 6. Close Winswitch Result: black screen, blinking cursor, computer unresponsive except to <ctrl><alt><delete> (which drops to runlevel 3 and reboots computer). Setup: Lenovo Yoga2 Pro x86_64, quad density screen, intel i7 OpenSuSE 13.2 + Linux 4.0.x kernel KDE4.14 winswitch-0.12.21 xpra-0.15.0 (rpms for both built on same machine that is crashing). This does not happen on my other computer, running rpms built from the same spec files, setup as follows: HP AMD x86_64 desktop OpenSuSE 13.1 (linux kernel 3.16.x I think, whichever is standard for openSuSE 13.1) KDE4.14 winswitch-0.12.21 xpra-0.15.0 (opSU 13.1 rpms built on this machine) On 06/01/2015 10:54 PM, Antoine Martin wrote: > On 02/06/15 04:51, basd wrote: >> Installed fmpeg and ffmpeg-devel so the rpmbuild and install work now. >> >> Plus, exits from Winswitch/Xpra are not crashing my server anymore. > My best guess is that until you installed ffmpeg, you were using other > fallback modules for image > processing: either our own cython csc module, the pyopencl one, or maybe the > vpx encoder. > One of those may contain a corruption bug which would cause crashes. > If so, you should be able to reproduce the problem by selecting which video > encoders and csc > modules are activated, ie: > xpra start --video-encoders=vpx --csc-modules=opencl > Please try to reproduce it: the fact that the problem is no longer occurring > does not mean that > the bug is gone, it is simply not triggered. And it may trigger later... _______________________________________________ shifter-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.devloop.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/shifter-users
