Bug#454568: [Linuxwacom-discuss] Bug#454568: xserver-xorg-input-wacom + ksmserver = X crash
Thank you. I didn't expect that to work (seeing how simple kcminputrc is), but it did! Add another one to the tally. This result is kinda perplexing, though. My first suspicion was that perhaps something adjusting the mouse parameters was the culprit, so I removed the [Mouse] section and tried that. Even with only the [Keyboard] section in the file the problem persists. It seems only when the entire file is gone I can login without hiccup. So this is a workaround. Not perfect since I can't set startup numlock status or mouse acceleration threshold, but these aren't too important.

If I read the xserver code correctly, there is a potential null-pointer de-ref that could cause this. Is this what you're thinking of Ron? In XkbIndicatorsToUpdate (./xkb/xkbLEDs.c:56) the call to XkbFindSrvLedInfo can potentially return NULL, which is not an uncommon cause for a SEGV. > Cheers, > Ron Cheers Magnus > On Thu, Dec 06, 2007 at 07:48:01PM +1000, Brendon Higgins wrote: > > Package: xserver-xorg-input-wacom > > Version: 0.7.9.3-2 > > Severity: normal > > > > > > (Wasn't sure whether to report here or to KDE devs. Here goes...) > > > > I've got a weird problem.

Bug#454568: xserver-xorg-input-wacom + ksmserver = X crash
This one I'm a bit less sure about... unless it's another manifestation of the double unmapping bug (also in XServer and known upstream), you'll probably have to talk this one through on the linux-wacom list. I've forwarded it there for comment.

Bug#454568: xserver-xorg-input-wacom + ksmserver = X crash
Package: xserver-xorg-input-wacom Version: 0.7.9.3-2 Severity: normal (Wasn't sure whether to report here or to KDE devs. Here goes...) I've got a weird problem. If I have the wacom drivers enabled in Xorg.conf and login to KDE (4:3.5.8.dfsg.1-3) as normal the X server will crash near the end of the KDE splashscreen, and I'm sent back to the KDM login screen. This doesn't happen when I disable the wacom drivers in ServerLayout. What's weirder is that X does *not* crash if I switch to a console VT while KDE is booting, then switch back not long after booting has finished. Then everything seems fine. But if I leave the screen in X while KDE boots, crash happens. By going through the steps in startkde manually I've narrowed it down to some point inside the call to ksmserver. Something ksmserver starts seems to puke with the wacom driver for some reason. I'm not sure how to go about narrowing it down further than that, though I want to. Advice on an approach to take would be appreciated. Xorg.0.log that ends in such a crash is attached, but it doesn't appear to be very informative. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xserver-xorg-input-wacom depends on: ii xserver-xorg-core 2:1.4.1~git20071119-1 Xorg X server - core server xserver-xorg-input-wacom recommends no packages. -- no debconf information X.Org X Server 1.4.0 Release Date: 5 September 2007 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 Build Operating System: Linux Debian (xorg-server 2:1.4.1~git20071119-1) Current Operating System: Linux phi 2.6.22-3-amd64 #1 SMP Sun Nov 4 18:18:09 UTC 2007 x86_64 Build Date: 20 November 2007 02:55:16AM Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version.
