Posted: Tue Oct 23, 2007 6:00 pm Post subject: [Solved] Pixman crashing X? |
|
|
I have problem with my X crashing now all the time. First this happened after upgrading to xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r1. I tried to fix it by upgrading to 1.4-r2 but everything is still broken.
This is what happens almost always if I try to start some application in X:
Code: |

Basically I'm currently being able to run fluxbox, urxvt and links inside X and everything else (for example: firefox-bin, kontact, eclipse, ooffice) crashes it. I have ati-card and I've changed to vesa-drivers (as oss-drivers seem to crash things even more easily).
To me the problem seems similar to these:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-593378-highlight-pixman.html (evince causes X to crash/close)
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-593714-highlight-pixman.html (firefox crashes xorg-server-1.4)
Any ideas? I've tried upgrading pixman to the latest portage offers but it didn't help me.

Hia,
I finally had some time to work with my gentoo installation and I found the problem. Seems to be that pixman was compiled with some sse-instructions while my athlon thunderbird doesn't support those. Same bug as in:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=192048
My problem was solved after adding -mno-sse to CFLAGS and recompiling pixman. |
