Product: XFree86
Component: XFree86
Summary: Client apps die
Version: 4.3-0.20030210.1mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The XFree86-4.3-0.20030210.1mdk has an annoying
problem: VMware 3.2 and Wine20030115 crash if not instantly, then very
shortly after start on a gui-related operation. With vmware, for ex.,
simply resizing a window (even without a guest OS running/loaded)
causes 98% crash, so does wine.
Checked under KDE 3.1, WindowMaker, IceWM and without display manager at all.
The X drivers checked: vesa,framebuffer,radeon,savage - all on different
computers.
Also checked under Xnest 4.3.0 and with ssh-forwarded connection to XFree 4.2.1
- same result.
The error message sounds like:
XIO: fatal IO error 0 (Success) on X server ":0.0"
after 3074 requests (3072 known processed) with 25 events
remaining.
Probable workaround: Setting colordepth to 8 bits seems to help, at least with
vmware, but it's not very practical solution.
