Description Matias Bjoerling 2004-08-11 14:05:25 UTC
When using xcompmgr and rezise a window, the server crash with a segfault.

It only crash in gnome ( haven't tried KDE though ). In fluxbox and xfce4, it
only give some artifacts... but it still crash after a while ( when have resized
for a bit )

When debugging xcompmgr ( xcompmgr don't crash ) and Xorg, it don't tell which
function it can't call or is  wrong ( function ?? ). Any help to debug will be
apreciated, it's a big blocker for using the xcompmgr manager.

this is probably a dupe of bug #998.  can you attach an Xorg.0.log from the crash?
Comment 2 Adam Jackson 2004-08-13 14:16:33 UTC
this is not a dupe of #998, it's a segv and not an abort.  backtrace to follow.

backtrace from resizing gaim under xcompmgr

Adding Keith to CC list so that he's aware of this crash.
Comment 5 Adam Jackson 2004-08-13 14:51:46 UTC
i can also trigger segfaults in checkPictureDamage on some popup windows (gaim
tooltips, the konsole "80x24" box).  hopefully those are symptoms of the same
problem.

Backtrace from resize gnome-terminal 

Loaded the binary nvidia driver and ran xcompmgr -cf and then started
gnome-termianl and resized it. ( crash when i started dragging. )
Comment 7 Philip Langdale 2004-08-13 21:03:59 UTC
Also seeing crash on resize (using the nvidia binary driver). I tried with twm
and this actually works fine; I guess because twm doesn't do continuous move or
resize.

no longer reproducable on current CVS.
