Title:
failsafeXServer does not parse Xorg.failsafe.log correctly
Status in xdiagnose package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
The timestamp for Xorg.failsafe.log has changed, and is no longer
parsed correctly by failsafeXServer
Here is a sample error message from syslog
2019-02-15T12:30:36.028591-08:00 awabi failsafeXServer[7805]: expr:
non-integer argument
2019-02-15T12:30:36.028735-08:00 awabi failsafeXServer[7805]:
/usr/share/xdiagnose/failsafeXServer: line 87: [: -lt: unary operator expected
Currently, Xorg.failsafe.log looks like:
[ 477.714] (II) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file.
but failsafeXServer assumes that the date is seconds since 1970-01-01
00:00:00 UTC
I have attached a patch which provides a solution to the problem. I
look at the timestamp of the file, using %s, which provides seconds
since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
