Description Yves Kondoszek 2011-06-03 15:42:30 UTC
Description of problem:
The display freezes when I launch claws-mail and I have a second monitor activated.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
The bug happened on earlier versions of Fedora and nouveau, so not applicable.

How reproducible:
Every time I launch my mail client claws-mail with a second monitor activated.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Activate a second monitor in dual-screen.
2. Launch claws-mail
  
Actual results:
The display freezes on a newly opened claws-mail window.

Expected results:
No freeze

Additional info:
Only the X server seems to freeze since I experienced one time my web browser keeping on streaming a video stream (at least the audio) during the freeze.
See attached files for more info.

Syslog file

Syslog output at the time of the bug.
Kind of useless because it doesn't say much: the freeze happens at 17:11:31

Another Xorg output dump

An other Xorg log where a SIGSEGV is evidently received.
A reboot is needed every time.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 15:36:13 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached 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 to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

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.

The process we are following is described here:
