RuntimeError: could not create GdkPixbuf object
Last modified: 2008-08-02 19:40:34 EDT
Yum update of FC5 to FC Devel leaves me with a non-working X server and a Python traceback when running s-c-d in virtual console. Full traceback in separate attachment. $ rpm -q system-config-display system-config-display-1.0.37-2 [...] Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xconf.py", line 377, in ? dialog = xConfigDialog.XConfigDialog(hardware_state, xconfig, rhpxl.videocard.VideoCardInfo()) File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xConfigDialog.py", line 467, in __init__ self.size_preview = screenSizePreview.ScreenSizePreview(xml.get_widget("screenshot_darea"),114,86) File "/usr/share/system-config-display/screenSizePreview.py", line 58, in __init__ gtk.gdk.screen_width(), gtk.gdk.screen_height()) RuntimeError: could not create GdkPixbuf object I've managed to run it with option "--noui" to create a fresh xorg.conf which results in a lousy VESA 800x600 video mode, because somewhere there's something else broken and refuses my 1280x1024 mode.

DOes this work better with 1.0.41 in rawhide?
Yes. Now I just need a working mga driver. :(
Created attachment 137819 [details] vc output of system-config-display 1.0.45-1 Startup crash is back: $ rpm -q system-config-display system-config-display-1.0.45-1
I am unable to reproduce this with 1.0.49. Can you update and verify?
1.0.48-1.fc7 is the latest that is available here. Unable to reproduce. Cannot reproduce with up-to-date FC6 anymore either. It's many months since the original report, so I cannot examine it any further anymore.
