Package: vnc4server Version: 4.1.1+X4.3.0-35 Severity: important Some applications, when run in vnc4server, die shortly after starting the application. This happens when I click on something, press a command hotkey, or otherwise interact with the GUI, but not necessarily the first interaction.
Here is an example error message: The program 'icedove-bin' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'. (Details: serial 7730 error_code 2 request_code 53 minor_code 0) (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.) This error is from icedove 3.0.1-2 from experimental. I'm seeing the same problem with google-chrome-beta (upstream pkg). I'm not seeing this problem when I run these applications in a different vnc server, x11vnc, nor when the applications are run on a desktop without vnc. I also tested tightvncserver last week and it had the same issue. I'm not filing a separate bug yet until it is determined whether it's vnc that's at fault, or the applications, or some common component of either. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (800, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages vnc4server depends on: ii libc6 2.10.2-5 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.4.3-2 GCC support library ii libice6 2:1.0.6-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libsm6 2:1.1.1-1 X11 Session Management library ii libstdc++6 4.4.3-2 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-1 X11 client-side library ii libxext6 2:1.1.1-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxtst6 2:1.1.0-2 X11 Testing -- Resource extension ii x11-common 1:7.5+3 X Window System (X.Org) infrastruc ii xbase-clients 1:7.5+3 miscellaneous X clients - metapack ii xserver-common 2:1.7.5-1 common files used by various X ser ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages vnc4server recommends: ii xfonts-base 1:1.0.1 standard fonts for X Versions of packages vnc4server suggests: pn vnc-java <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
