Bug#659104: X programs hanging in busy loop on kfreebsd
Package: libxcb1 Version: 1.8-1 Severity: grave User: debian-...@lists.debian.org Hi! Since the recent libxcb update (1.7-4 - 1.8-1) I can't start a single X application (they all hang in a busy loop and don't display anything). I noticed, that after the upgrad I was still able to spawn a new window from urxvtd but not any new program (probably urxvtcd still having loaded the old version). Looking at my aptitude log for the update libxcb seems to be the only related update at that point in time. This is on a kfreebsd-amd64/wheezy system with VESA X.org driver (Intel GMA) Regards Christoph -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: kfreebsd-amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: kFreeBSD 8.3-0-amd64 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libxcb1 depends on: ii libc0.12.13-24 ii libxau61:1.0.6-4 ii libxdmcp6 1:1.1.0-4 ii multiarch-support 2.13-24 libxcb1 recommends no packages. libxcb1 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

This is on a kfreebsd-amd64/wheezy system with VESA X.org driver (Intel GMA) Copying from the upstream bug as I'd need some advice on bsd glibc. We're looking for explanation for this behaviour. I the following patch fixes the problem for me (as well does reverting from recv to read. I'll see if I can work out why it fails here without the patch with debian-...@lists.debian.org folks. recv seems to fail (loop) with Resource temporarily unavailable (ret=-1, errno=35) according to ktrace http://people.debian.org/~christoph/libxcb.diff Regards Christoph -- 9FED 5C6C E206 B70A 5857 70CA 9655 22B9 D49A E731 Debian Developer | Lisp Hacker | CaCert Assurer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
