** Summary changed: - KDE 4.2 causes a segfault in X + KDE 4.2 (kwin) causes a segfault in X
** Description changed: I installed KDE 4.2 from the kbuntu.org ppa (http://ppa.launchpad.net /kubuntu-experimental/ubuntu). When I try to use it, however, it crashes fairly soon after logging in. This happens at various times. One of the times is when I click on a menu bar item. Xorg.log.old has the following messages toward the end. There are a bunch of lines that look like X is trying to guess my keyboard/mouse hardware, and then this: AUDIT: Fri Feb 20 21:44:33 2009: 7837 X: client 4 rejected from local host ( uid=1001 gid=1001 pid=8273 ) AUDIT: Fri Feb 20 21:44:33 2009: 7837 X: client 4 rejected from local host ( uid=1001 gid=1001 pid=8274 ) AUDIT: Fri Feb 20 21:44:33 2009: 7837 X: client 4 rejected from local host ( uid=1001 gid=1001 pid=8275 ) Backtrace: 0: /usr/X11R6/bin/X(xf86SigHandler+0x79) [0x80c01c9] 1: [0xb80ba400] 2: /usr/X11R6/bin/X(UnmapWindow+0x1f8) [0x8076e28] 3: /usr/X11R6/bin/X(compFreeClientWindow+0x23a) [0x8143d4a] 4: /usr/X11R6/bin/X [0x8141144] 5: /usr/X11R6/bin/X(FreeResource+0x10c) [0x807461c] 6: /usr/X11R6/bin/X(compUnredirectWindow+0x7b) [0x81438eb] 7: /usr/X11R6/bin/X [0x8141a9e] 8: /usr/X11R6/bin/X [0x81290c5] 9: /usr/X11R6/bin/X [0x8128fdc] 10: /usr/X11R6/bin/X [0x8128fdc] 11: /usr/X11R6/bin/X(miChangeSaveUnder+0x6b) [0x812917b] 12: /usr/X11R6/bin/X(MapWindow+0x448) [0x8077658] 13: /usr/X11R6/bin/X(ProcMapWindow+0x69) [0x808c019] 14: /usr/X11R6/bin/X(Dispatch+0x34f) [0x808c89f] 15: /usr/X11R6/bin/X(main+0x47d) [0x8071d1d] 16: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xe5) [0xb7cb4685] 17: /usr/X11R6/bin/X [0x8071101] Saw signal 11. Server aborting. I'm on Intrepid 32bit and using a nvidia geforce 8600GT with the 180.29 drivers compiled from the nvidia site. + + EDIT: I think I narrowed the problem down to being in kwin. I can run + KDE apps just fine in gnome, unless I replace compiz with kwin (in + gnome). Then I get the same crash problem. ** Tags added: kwin -- KDE 4.2 (kwin) causes a segfault in X https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332421 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
