Same here, doesn't work with 260.19.29, 11.3 (32 bits). Using KDE 4.6 RC2. (Although it first stopped working with KDE 4.5.x after the nvidia update to 260.xx.xx) In KDE 4.5 crash clocks (and therefore you can't even log in with them). Also at least Ktorrent and Amarok, crash. In KDE 4.6 clocks and Amarok still crash. Ktorrent is now fine.

Hi, I had the same problem, but I was able to sort it out with this workaround:

1. in the KDE system setting (systemsettings) go to the Desktop Effects 2. go to Advanced setting. there is OpenGL setting. 3. switch the texture filtering to the "Trilinear". 4. save it and restart the KDE.

- now it should works ;-)

It seems to have stayed under the radar for way too long =/

I don't understand this. The bug report on bugs.kde.org is from mid September, when 260.xx.xx was provided in nvidia's repositories. At that time there were tons of people affected and numerous reports. The guys at #opensuse-kde on freenode were certainly well aware of it. Bug was closed as Resolved - Upstream and one would expect some sort of down/upstream communication. Not to mention it was reported here too, and linked to bugs.kde.org. How can something as massive as this stay under the radar? Right now it is the 43th bug with most duplicate reports at bugs.kde.org! https://bugs.kde.org/duplicates.cgi This is pretty impressive for a bug that is distro specific. It gets worst.

the amarok crash is independent - and reproducible without NV afaik.

Hi Stephan, I'm not sure what you mean by this. The NV update definitely causes amarok to crash. This as been confirmed and is well documented. You can find numerous amarok crash reports marked as duplicate of the NV bug report. As an example, here's just a few: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=253055 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=255249 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=255479 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=255490 As usual with crashes caused by the NV problem, the backtraces exhibit the usual "Floating point exception", and running the app with strace is an effective workaround. Regarding the specific case of Donn's bug, he doesn't have a lot of info that thread, not sure if he posted one of the duplicate reports. But he does mention at least that the "strace" workaround does the trick, and he seems to be convinced it is the same bug. So of course it could be something else... just not sure why you think it is. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The FPE in ld-linux.so is because the register ($esi) is zero: 000090f0 : 90f0: 55 push %ebp 90f1: 31 d2 xor %edx,%edx 90f3: 57 push %edi 90f4: 56 push %esi 90f5: 83 ec 08 sub $0x8,%esp 90f8: 8b 74 24 18 mov 0x18(%esp),%esi 90fc: 89 04 24 mov %eax,(%esp) 90ff: 8b 44 24 1c mov 0x1c(%esp),%eax 9103: 89 4c 24 04 mov %ecx,0x4(%esp) 9107: 8d 6e fe lea -0x2(%esi),%ebp 910a: f7 f6 div %esi <<<<<< FPE Looking at the source, this can't happen. It's the size parameter which starts from 31, and then only increases to next prime numbers. Indeed, if running under gdb or valgrind, the FPE doesn't happen, and the first call to enter.8102 (coinciding with the point where the crash would normally happen) has this parameter be set to 61, which indeed is the next prime number _dl_higher_prime_number would return for 31. So, something between calculating that next prime number and this routine is going fishy. As I have traced the source of the invalid zero somewhat in a core file (the zero is already in the argument stack slot, and on the caller side in a register where debuginfo isn't sufficient to trace it back further), I would speculate that something clobbers the stack. I can't yet rule out that something clobbers registers, though. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I just tested:

11.4, 32-bit KDE 4.6.0 Nvidia blob 260.19.36 (KMP from the Nvidia repo)

And for me Plasma and Amarok (both in completely default configuration) were working fine.

Can anyone else confirm?

It'd be nice to be able to get rid of all the warnings in the wiki etc., if the problem is actually solved now - even with 260 series.

Just upgraded to 11.4 on a 32-bit system and KDE starts just fine, but Amarok crashes with a floating point exception.

Could you list the widgets you use in Amarok? Does it happen with a new user too?

I created a new user, and the steps were: - amarok does not have MP3 support, do you want to install ? (no) - dialog pops up for collection selection, I pick $HOME/Documents - amarok windows briefly appears - crash As for the widgets, I have no idea, but should be nothing out of the ordinary. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
