Celestia freezes and kills X
Last modified: 2016-12-20 12:47:28 EST
Description of problem: On a dual screen running off i965 Xeon E3-1200 graphics, celestia starts up, brings up the initial screen and then freezes, and grabs the focus. I can Ctrl-Alt-F3 to the text screen, and sometimes I see the celestia process but other times it is gone. I think that sometimes while I'm in text mode the graphical session (gnome) restarts, so I can go back to it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): celestia-1.6.1-21.fc23.x86_64 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. run celestia. Actual results: non-working celestia window, overall session locked due to input grab Expected results: working application
I ran celestia in gdb from the shell prompt, but didn't see any messages. I ran GDB session logging to a file (attached), but even then no messages were forthcoming---I think the X session dies and takes celestia with it.
Created attachment 1113646 [details] log of gdb session
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '23'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 23 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-12-20. Fedora 23 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug.
