--- Comment #8 from Guido Berhoerster
Yesterday I removed and installed the Previous Nvidia driver. That did not fix the problem. Later I created a new blank home directory for my account and root. The problem went away. I will need to reinstall the latest Nvidia Driver and login and reboot a few time to see if it was really the cause of the problem. If it was just my account that had the problem I would have put it down as a corrupted config file. But root also had the problem.
The problem was only on the right screen.
When you right click on the right screen the background and task bar would disappear on both screens the come back. Some time the task bar would not come back.
OK, so I suppose you are running the default Xfce session? That means the background is drawn by xfdesktop and the "task bar" is the Xfce panel. They might be crashing and in that case xfce4-session will automatically respawn them (until you hit a limit). In order to investigate them I would need a full backtrace of xfce4-panel and xfdesktop when they've crashed with all debugging symbols installed. Instructions can be found at https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bugreport_application_crashed#Using_GDB
I can not send the xsession error file it was delete when I cleared out my home director. I created an rsync copy of my home directory so I can compare if the problem comes back.
If you can reproduce the crashes again, having that might be useful as well.
I can not update back to the latest Nvidia driver. I am seeing problem when I synce my openSUSE repos. I keep a local copy because I have over 30 computers all trying to go through a firewall and proxy. The problem I am seeing with repo is the sha256 checksum for the *.gz in repodata in 13.1 Update do not match the file name but they do match what is in the meta4 files. Can someone do a aria2c of http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/13.1:/Update/standard/ repodata/e401c0934cecc5ad4a07bcce66c1a37c3922cdcdba7afe1ac25e2d9def7859e3- app-icons.tar.gz and see what sha256 check sum they get? I am getting 8c2dc6b86b9062a7411afaaf0a996fca529c6cfc535a853ea23fa6856c92dae2.
download.opensuse.org redirects you to local mirrors and one of them may be corrupt, a list of available mirrors is at http://mirrors.opensuse.org/ . In any case I get the same checksum. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
