From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050416 Fedora/1.0.3-2 Firefox/1.0.3 Description of problem: [kyle@fluffbox ~]$ xscreensaver-demo xscreensaver-demo: 22:34:32: Gtk-critical: gtk_list_store_get_path: assertion `iter->stamp == GTK_LIST_STORE (tree_model)->stamp' failed Looks to me like someone made a booboo. :) This looks like a little problem with the a gtk list variable. I'd help but I don't know enough GTK... or anything else starting with G.... :) -- Kyle Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xscreensaver-4.21 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install fc4t2 2. up2date everything 3. run xscreensaver-demo 4. notice there are no screensavers listed Actual Results: There are no screensavers listed. Expected Results: I would have prefered to see my screensavers. :) Additional info: I think its just a bug with the variable that the list is kept in. But I'm not sure.
xscreensaver-base doesn't install any screensavers by default. Do you have xscreensaver-extras or xscreensaver-gl-extras installed?
Yep. I have all the latest xscreensaver packages installed. :)
Hmm, I can't reproduce this problem. The console warning you are seeing is a result of there being no screensavers in the list not the reason there are no screensavers in the list. If you force reinstall xscreensaver-extras (and/or gl-extras) does it fix the problem for you?
Still no screensavers. :( I did a : rpm -e xscreensaver-base xscreensaver-extras xscreensaver-gl-extras Then a yum install xscreensaver-base xscreensaver-extras xscreensaver-gl-extras and I still have no screensavers listed. :(
What if you move your ~/.xscreensaver file out of the way? what is the output of rpm -V xscreensaver-base xscreensaver-extras xscreensaver-gl-extras ?
Created attachment 114076 [details] XScreenSaver Preferences File I have the same problem so I send this file
1. I have tried removing .xscreensaver and nothing changed didn't work. 2. I re-installed Fedora then yum -y update'd 3. rpm -V..... gives no output. I'll try your uploaded file thanks.
I reinstalled Fedora Core 4 again. I am using up2date-nox -u to update. That uploaded file didn't work. I really do with I knew where my screensavers went. :( I'm really surprised you can't reproduce this Ray. :-s
I think that the problem is located here in the demo-Gtk.c file : 3331 j = 0; 3333 for (i = 0; i < p->screenhacks_count; i++) 3334 { 3335 if (!p->ignore_uninstalled_p || 3336 s->hacks_available_p[i]) { 3337 s->list_elt_to_hack_number[j++] = i; 3338 } 3339 } 3340 s->list_count = j; After that, s->list_count = 0 (j = 0). But it shoult contains the number of screensaver available. So I will take a look why j=0.
This function check if the different screensaver are present : for (i = 0; i < p->screenhacks_count; i++) { screenhack *hack = p->screenhacks[i]; s->hacks_available_p[i] = on_path_p (hack->command); } So the mistake is in the on_path_p function. For example, the parameter hash->command are like this : ${libexecdir}/xscreensaver/qix -root -solid -segments 100 ${libexecdir}/xscreensaver/qix -root -count 4 -solid -transparent ... sphereEversion --root In the function on_path_p : if (strchr (cmd, '/')) { result = (0 == stat (cmd, &st)); goto DONE; } so with cmd = "${libexecdir}/xscreensaver/qix -root -solid -segments 100" for example the result = 0 because strchr(cmd, '/') = "/xscreensaver/qix". I hope I was clear in my explanation.
Cool. So now that we ( or better yet... you ) know what the problem is. Do you have any idea when the fix will make its way into rawhide?
Ok. I'm pretty sure what the deal is. Your explination makes sense. They made a booboo in the the default configuration file. :) I copied my .xscreensaver to ~/xscreensaver . Then it remade it and didn't have a list. I then copied ~/xscreensaver to ~/.xscreensaver and it works fine again. Hope that helps! :D
Exactly ! The xscreensaver configuration file is composed of "${libexecdir}/xscreensaver/qix ..." instead of "/usr/libexec/xscreensaver/qix ...". Good work !
Created attachment 114140 [details] Working xscreensaver config file. Put this in your home directory and start xscreensaver-demo. Then xscreensaver should work fine. :-D -- kyle
Oh geez. I'll fix this. Sorry about that guys.
This problem happens until you upgrade xscreensaver-* and then remove the .xscreensaver file that was made when you had the FC4T3 version installed. The latest version fixes the problem. It still shows blank until file is removed and recreated with the newer version xscreensaver-gl-extras-4.21-4 xscreensaver-extras-4.21-4 xscreensaver-base-4.21-4
I had the same error. However MY problem turned out to be permissions of 740 instead of 755 on /usr/libexec/xscreensaver
