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. |
Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): openoffice.org-core-2.0.4-5.5.22 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. type ooffice 2. (command exits with return code of 0) 3. Actual results: ooffice doesn't run Expected results: ooffice to startup Additional info: see attached strace file. This problem appears to have started after changing my X configuration to use multiple video cards.
