After downgrading X11 from 1.17 to the F21 1.16 packages, everything seems stable again, so this bug was introduced in 1.17 (possibly an incompatability with the ATI driver?) Packages Altered: Downgrade xorg-x11-drv-ati-7.5.0-1.fc21.x86_64 @fedora21 Downgraded 7.5.0-3.fc22.x86_64 (unknown) Downgrade xorg-x11-drv-fbdev-0.4.3-19.fc21.x86_64 @fedora21 Downgraded 0.4.3-20.fc22.x86_64 (unknown) Downgrade xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.99.916-4.20141117.fc21.x86_64 @updates21 Downgraded 2.99.917-11.20150603.fc22.x86_64 @updates Downgrade xorg-x11-drv-libinput-0.9.0-1.fc22.x86_64 @fedora Downgraded 0.11.0-1.fc22.x86_64 @updates-testing Downgrade xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-1:1.0.11-1.fc21.x86_64 @fedora21 Downgraded 1:1.0.11-2.fc22.x86_64 (unknown) Downgrade xorg-x11-drv-openchrome-0.3.3-12.fc21.x86_64 @fedora21 Downgraded 0.3.3-14.fc22.x86_64 (unknown) Downgrade xorg-x11-drv-qxl-0.1.2-1.fc21.x86_64 @fedora21 Downgraded 0.1.3-2.fc22.x86_64 (unknown) Downgrade xorg-x11-drv-vesa-2.3.2-19.fc21.x86_64 @fedora21 Downgraded 2.3.2-20.fc22.x86_64 (unknown) Downgrade xorg-x11-drv-vmware-13.0.2-8.20150211git8f0cf7c.fc21.x86_64 @updates21 Downgraded 13.0.2-8.20150211git8f0cf7c.fc22.x86_64 (unknown) Downgrade xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.16.3-2.fc21.x86_64 @updates21 Downgraded 1.17.1-14.fc22.x86_64 (unknown) Downgrade xorg-x11-server-Xwayland-1.16.3-2.fc21.x86_64 @updates21 Downgraded 1.17.1-14.fc22.x86_64 (unknown) Downgrade xorg-x11-server-common-1.16.3-2.fc21.x86_64 @updates21 Downgraded 1.17.1-14.fc22.x86_64 (unknown) I can confirm this, as I was having the same issue. I am also running gnome, have an AMD card (R9 290x), and every time I tried to open a file with Libreoffice X would crash. I had the same result trying to use OpenOffice. Are there any updates on this or is the only solution to downgrade? I downgraded all of the packages listed by OP to the packages listed in the post, and I can confirm that fixed the problem and LibreOffice is working just fine now. The bugfix from upstream bugreport fixes the issue for my Radeon 280x. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90667 (Comment 27) Any chance you could provide instructions on how to apply this patch? it should be in the xorg-x11-server-Xorg packages in updates-testing already. xorg-x11-server-1.17.2-2.fc22 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 22. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/xorg-x11-server-1.17.2-2.fc22 Confirmed working with the 1.17.2-2 packages (thanks Dave!) Very similar to the bug 1210931 although LibreOffice worked with version 4.4.3.x Package xorg-x11-server-1.17.2-2.fc22: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 22 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing xorg-x11-server-1.17.2-2.fc22' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-12282/xorg-x11-server-1.17.2-2.fc22 then log in and leave karma (feedback). xorg-x11-server-1.17.2-2.fc22 has been pushed to the Fedora 22 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
Created attachment 1039842 [details] X.org log with backtrace of crash Description of problem: I'm seeing severe stability issues when attempting to use LibreOffice Writer. When starting writer, X crashes and returns med to the login screen. This has also occured when starting Xemacs. From the stacktrace this looks like a nullpointer exception occuring in OsLookupColor, see attached files. I've also tried with LibreOffice 4.3 using the official RPM's. With this version I can start Writer and edit documents, but X still crashes the moment I click the "View" menu item (the others seem to work). The same issue seems to occur randomly if I attempt to resize an XEmacs window. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.17.1-14.fc22.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Login with GNOME or MATE desktop environment 2. Start LibreOffice Writer Actual results: X crashes and returns me to the login screen. Expected results: Normal startup of program.
