strace of crashing startup
Update: this appears to not be an openoffice bug, but a deeper bug with the NVidia driver in this configuration. This snippet from the strace file: 11052 read(7, "\0\t\3\1/\0\200\2\0\0005\0\230\303\235\10\0\0\0\0\t\0\0"..., 32) = 32 11052 exit_group(78) = ? 11042 <... waitpid resumed> [{WIFEXITED(s) && WEXITSTATUS(s) == 78}], 0) = 11052 And this error message from glxgears: X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 78 (X_CreateColormap) Value in failed request: 0x0 Serial number of failed request: 13 Current serial number in output stream: 19 ... seems a little too much of a coincidence (xscreensaver bombs out with a similar error). yes, it's a fairly common problem, but it is that of nvidia binary drivers Yeah. Turns out I was able to trace this back to the GLX drivers failing to load. A reinstall of the binary drivers fixed the problem. It would be really nice, however, if OpenOffice would give you an error message instead of just exiting with exit code 0 and no message. |
