Same thing happens if I try to run inkscape on a vnc server inkscape-0.47-0.8.20090508svn.fc11.x86_64 Start Xvnc; start inkscape; select the text tool; click on the canvas. segfault happens whether or not Xvnc is started from an ssh session. This is very annoying! tigervnc-0.0.91-0.12.fc11 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 11. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/tigervnc-0.0.91-0.12.fc11 tigervnc-0.0.91-0.12.fc11 has been pushed to the Fedora 11 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update tigervnc'. You can provide feedback for this update here: http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F11/FEDORA-2009-8553 tigervnc-0.0.91-0.12.fc11 has been pushed to the Fedora 11 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. Hitting an identical problem building both 1.0.0 and 1.0.1 for kubuntu 9.04 , in case that is any help. I start vncserver from client machine by ssh link. starting vncserver :1 as either root or user produces the same result. Some gimp funstions such as renaming/saving files is fine but as soon as I click on a image canvas in gimp I get the same error in dmesg. [49747.835746] Xvnc[15186]: segfault at 0 ip 0000000000000000 sp 00007fff9827bfb8 error 14 in Xvnc[400000+237000] doing the same operation on :0 I get similar but not identical result: [50562.573784] Xorg[5782]: segfault at 20 ip 0000000000496786 sp 00007fff3b57ba60 error 4 in Xorg[400000+1c3000] [50562.712616] [drm:gm45_get_vblank_counter] *ERROR* trying to get vblank count for disabled pipe 0 [50566.065777] [drm:i915_setparam] *ERROR* unknown parameter 4 I think the last 2 lines are part of X:0 being restarted by gdm. Other vnc usages seems fast and stable. Very impressive.

Very impressive. Please report this issue against X.Org in the Ubuntu bug tracker. Xvnc is based on the X.Org source and if gimp crashes X server then it must be fixed before Xvnc. Gimp does not crash xserver on it's own. If I remove tigervnc, gimp and inkscape function correctly. That was not said explicitly but seems to be implied by OP as well. This would seem to show that it is the vnc module that is causing the crash not gimp ( or possibly gtk+ that is the most obvious common lib for inkscape and gimp.) Since ubuntu do not package tigervnc I see no justification for posting this to lauchpad. The distro packages work normally. unning gimp or inkscape to an Xvnc server from tigervnc-server-1.0.1-3.fc12.x86_64 works fine, so this bug is not present in Fedora 12, at least. So either you don't have the same bug as I originally reported, or your build doesn't include the relevant patch, or the bug has crept back in. Adam Tkac: " Please report this issue against X.Org in the Ubuntu bug tracker. Xvnc is based on the X.Org source and if gimp crashes X server then it must be fixed before Xvnc." Adam, I find it hard to justify submitting a bug based on what I have: I build tigervnc vncserver on Ubuntu 9.04 and it works. I download ubuntu source for xorg, I patch it with non ubuntu xserve16.patch. I build and install Xvnc, vncsaerver et al. I restart the machine and now vncserver crashes X. I would expect that to get pretty short shrift as a bug report. You are obviously a lot more familiar with the software and ensueing build problems than I am. Were you just going form what I reported here or are you aware of specific issue on Ubuntu xorg 1.6 ? It would seem I need something more concrete than what I have to lay this on Ubuntu. |
