Greetings. I don't have a x86_64 test box, so it might be difficult to duplicate this here. ;( Can you try a few things: - rpm -ivh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/4/x86_64/debug/xfce4-panel-debuginfo-4.2.3-1.fc4.x86_64.rpm (assuming you are running the latest version from extras). Then re-run your gdb traces? This should hopefully provide more information. - Running xfce4-panel & in your xstartup is not the prefred way to start xfce, (although it should work). can you try: exec startxfce4 and see if it makes any diffrence? The debuginfo package is installed (otherwise you wouldn't see line number info). We'll try startxfce4 and see if that helps. Just got access to a fc4 x86_64 box to test with. I used your ~/.vnc/xstartup file from above. The first time I ran vncserver everything was fine, but after that I was able to see xfce4-panel die like you were. ;) It looks like it's a race condition if you try and start xfwm4 and xfce4-panel at the same time. If I put a 'sleep 2' between them I can't get it to fail. It also always works for me if I use the 'exec startxfce4' (which needs xfce-utils installed, BTW). I did some tracing on xfce4-panel, and it dies when it's trying to talk to xfce-mcs-manager it looks like. I will mention this issue on the upstream lists, although they may well say "don't do that then". If you could confirm if startxfce4 works that would be good. Any news on if using startxfce4 works around the issue for you? I posted to the upstream list, but didn't get any response. I can file an upstream bug on it... So far no problems with startxfce4. I think that will work for us. |
