[SOLVED] Xorg 1.9 + qt 4.7 + nvidia + xinerama = Xorg segfault

4internetanonymity · 2010-10-18 07:58:53

I'm fairly certain I'm suffering from this bug. Is this patch already in Arch's stable Xorg? X also crashes when I try to resize ANY window by dragging the corner, for example - but not by clicking the maximize or minimize buttons. I thought programs were crashing X when starting because they were resizing, but now I see that mostly they're QT programs (VirtualBox, Opera, qbittorrent, smplayer, etc) that do it when they start.

P.S. Other Xinerama bugs: any idea why video from mplayer doesn't show on anything but screen 0, why flash can't go full screen, and why the mouse acts up in games like q3?
P.P.S. Can different workspaces be bound to the different xinerama screens (so that in whatever WM, there isn't just one long toolbar on the bottom, where tabs for, say, screen 3 are on the toolbar of screen 1)?

Thanks!

Okay, applied the patch - all of my problems in the first paragraph are remedied! There is tones more output from X when starting though - probably because lots was -enabled in that PKGBUILD.

anonymous: I've reviewed the PKGBUILD and it indeed appears I have left out a "--with-debug" in the PKGBUILD. If you remove that line, it should make for less verbose launches.

For your PPS, I believe this depends on how your window manager behaves. I'm using awesome and it draws a taskbar with separate workspaces on everyscreen. For the rest of he Xinerama bugs, I believe you should start a new thread to get more involvement. For your PS, I believe you should search for existing threads or possibly start a new one with more information so people can try and reproduce. For mplayer I'm inclined to think it's also your window manager messing things up. Make sure your window manager is Xinerama aware !

Note for Ochi : to get a debug build I added "--with-debug" and removed "strip" from makepkg.conf. Unfortunately, that wasnt enough to get full debug information (no line numbers, instead symbol+offset notation). Could you share how you managed to get full symbols in your Xorg PKGBUILD ? "CFLAGS=-g -ggdb configure ..." ? "CFLAGS=-g -ggdb make ..." ?

Ochi · 2010-10-19 11:24:44

Actually, I didn't use a PKGBUILD but built Xorg manually (don't ask me why, but it worked *g*).

Still, I basically used configure options like in your PKGBUILD and called configure like this (as pointed out in the Xorg wiki article on ServerDebugging):

CFLAGS='-O0 -g3' ./configure --prefix=...

I guess you should be able to do something like this in the PKGBUILD as well.

Hello, I am also affected by this bug and am convinced the patch would work for me however as I am new to Arch linux (Fed up with waiting for gentoo compiling time (otherwise great distribution) and working with ubuntu felt a bit like working with Windows again with all the stuff that gets installed without asking) I would prefer not having to alter the maintained version I've installed. Is anyone aware of timescales of when this patch might filter through to the compiled pacman images. Alternatively can someone point me in the right direction how I can best get the source from an Arch linux source, patch and install if I wanted to temporarily use a home compiled Xorg while we wait on the maintained package to be fixed.

beren · 2010-10-27 22:37:30

After following the guide here:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Build_System

I was able to compile from source with patch mentioned earlier in this tread and I am now able to use QT apps while using Xinerama.

Brilliant and thanks.

Thanks!

you can build mplayer with xinerama enabled using ABS.

Does anyone have an update as to when a pkg will be released or a patched Xorg available via updates?

This machine has been crippled for almost a month.

Thanks

Here is wor's patch again (looks like pastebin link is dead):

From: mr.zor <NSFW>
Date: Fri, 15 Oct 2010 17:17:39 +0200

     {

     rep.dstY += screenInfo.screens[0]->y;
-- 
1.7.3.1

Put that in a text file and name it like so: qtfix.patch

Get latest xorg-server PKGBUILD & other build scripts with abs extra/xorg-server.

Edit PKGBUILD to include qtfix.patch (place it inside "source" array).

Generate new md5 checksums like this: makepkg -g >> PKGBUILD

Replace old md5sums array in PKGBUILD with the new one from above.

Inside build() function, put these lines in (right after xorg-redhat-die-ugly-pattern-die-die-die.patch):

  # Fix QT & tcl/tk GUI crash on Xinerama
  patch -Np1 -i "${srcdir}/qtfix.patch"

Compile package with: makepkg -s

This will create the following packages:

xorg-server-1.9.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
xorg-server-common-1.9.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
xorg-server-devel-1.9.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
xorg-server-xdmx-1.9.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
xorg-server-xephyr-1.9.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
xorg-server-xnest-1.9.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
xorg-server-xvfb-1.9.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

Then do sudo pacman -U *.xz

Easy as pie.

Once the patch gets merged into xserver, then we'll have to wait for a new xserver release. I have no idea how long that will take. Of course after that, the Arch devs will have to make a new PKGBUILD, test it, then finally release it as stable in /extra.

It will take at least a month, if not two or three. But hey, who cares --- you can have a working xorg-server like everyone else on this thread by following my tutorial above.

Just an update: Everything has been very stable in Xorg since I used this patch. Thanks a lot.

Ideas? I can open the link with a web-browser.

EDIT: This is driving me up the wall. Both xorg-server-git and xorg-server-dev in the AUR give the same error message. I even used a VPN to make sure I was able to download anything that's needed (as that's what appears to be the error), but I get the same error. Seriously, can someone even just send me the compiled packages?

This was affecting Fedora 14 too with my 3 head (xinerama + twinview) nvidia box. Once I figured out it was apps linked with qt that were causing the crashes, found this thread, the patch works, and a future Fedora update will contain the fix. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buil … dID=204393 Thanks!

Didn't do this because I don't know where to find the new checksums.

Anyway, I've managed to get to this step:

@finne: Scroll down into your logs (posts #46 and #49). Read the lines where it reports warnings and errors. A program, xmlto, is complaining about some incorrect syntax. Recall from your reading of post #36 that someone had problems with xml (in his case, xsl), and fixed it with minor effort (post #39). Perhaps that solution will work for you. Or, maybe it will not work. But no one knows, since you've done nothing, except copying/pasting your failed build log and saying "please help." Be like o1911 (post #36) and actually report what you did to try to solve the problem --- try not to be a help vampire.

Unfortunately, right now it looks like no one can help you since you are the only one experiencing problems with xmlto. I just ABS-synched the new xorg 1.9.2 yesterday with the patch, with zero problems. I suggest you use Google (copy/paste some phrases in your failed build log into Google with double quotes --- I use this technique every time.)

No, it was directed toward the tens (maybe hundreds?) of Arch/non-Arch people who keep visiting this thread for bleeding edge news on the patch's upstream progress.
