I have a dual-display as well, two distinct displays on one video card, and I get the same symptoms and the same error when I try to log out. I am running Fedora Core 1. It has come to my knowledge that this is a bug in gnome-session that's been fixed for 2.6.1. I guess I'll wait with closing it though 'til 2.6.1 is part of Fedora. Closing this one since 2.7.4, which has this bug fixed, is now used in devel |
Description of problem: When I choose to log out from Gnome and expect to get the confirmation requester (the one with choices to reboot or shutdown the computer), gnome instead seems to crash X entirely (which in my case makes init respawn X and I'm back to the gdm greeter). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-session-2.4.0-1 I'm running latest (i386 precompiled) Rawhide versions of all XFree86 and gnome packages. How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Choose to log out either from main menu or from a log out button on my panel Actual results: A confirmation requester with choices to logout/reboot/poweroff Expected results: X crashes Additional info: The really strange with this is that it only happens if I have a second screen configured in XF86Config and they screens are not in xinerama mode (that is, I have one monitor at :0.0 and one at :0.1). I fail to see the connection here, but I've tried quite some times and this is the case. Maybe the fancy logout effect can't handle multiple screens? I get the following in my .xsession-errors: The program 'gnome-session' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'. (Details: serial 1471 error_code 8 request_code 1 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
