[opensuse] Latest xorg update is problematic
Hello list, Since installing the latest xorg updates for OpenSuSE 10.2, some applications fail to start. One example I was able to verify is eclipse (ver. 3.2). Here is the error message: ------------------------<cut>------------------------------ guest@duerer:~> The program 'Eclipse' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 582 error_code 11 request_code 144 minor_code 5) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) ------------------------<cut>------------------------------ Other reportedly affected applications are 'VLC' and 'xchm'. I was not able to verify that. The offending packages are: ------------------------<cut>------------------------------ xorg-x11-server-7.2-30.11 Fri 18 Jan 2008 08:39:33 CET xorg-x11-devel-7.2-25 Fri 18 Jan 2008 08:39:08 CET xorg-x11-libs-7.2-25 Fri 18 Jan 2008 08:39:00 CET ------------------------<cut>------------------------------ Similar packages were distributed this morning via apt-get for Ubuntu users and have the same detrimental effects.

Same here, openSUSE 10.3, on 32bit. All SWT based applications stopped working! My biggest problem is my worktool, eclipse! Yesterday was all ok, today it simply died with error Philippe described. The solution was, that i restored the packages updated today with following versions: xorg-x11-devel-7.2-103.2.i586.rpm xorg-x11-libs-7.2-103.2.i586.rpm xorg-x11-server-7.2-143.6.i586.rpm xorg-x11-server-extra-7.2-143.6.i586.rpm In previous mail, i noted only libs package as cause by mistake. ~t~ On Jan 18, 2008 3:47 PM, Philippe Andersson <pan@iba-group.com> wrote:

<snip> Hmm... I am using eclipse 3.2.2 on SuSE 10.2 with the update and it is running without problems for me (so far)... It might be worth specifying JRE version (and whether it is the SuSE RPM version) and and whether Eclipse is the SuSE RPM version... I looked at bugzilla report and did the update just to check things out, rebooted and have had no problems so far. However, both JRE and Eclipse are SuSE RPM versions, and I am also not using 1.6 This may be where the problem lies, ... It might be worth updating the bugzilla report with these details... - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.

similar problem here: since this update IceWM icons and renderings around a window (maximize,minimize, title buttons) are scrambled with dots and lines. i reinstalled the old xorg-x11-libs-7.2-23.i586.rpm and xorg-x11-libs-7.2-23.i586.rpm and now this errors are gone on my opensuse 10.2 i586 regards, Georg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
