Re: [PD] Loading/modifying some PD files causing computer restart

2013-09-09 Thread Charles Goyard
Hi,

I noticed that on my computer too a few months back. I had the same
problem with Audacity and Kicad (both wxwidgets apps).

For what I understand, this has been tracked down to a bug in the Intel
driver in conjunction with a Xorg bug when using unaccelerated graphics.
But I may be wrong.

So first, double check you are using hardware acceleration. I thought I
was and I wasn't for months :).

 that in some situations, such as an old patch not being able to find
 external abstractions, it causes the screen to go black and then log
 me out. This also happens in some patches when I try to type in the
 name of a new object on the canvas.
 
 I'm not exactly sure what is causing this. I've attached a patch that
 I grabbed from the list which causes a restart when I try to type in a
 new object

How can I check this on Ubuntu 13.04? I don't appear to have any
proprietary drivers installed but does that mean it's not using
hardware acceleration?

Check in the Xorg.log file (on my computer it's /var/log/Xorg.0.log) for
lines talking about acceleration and intel.

The driver is open source straight from Intel (thanks guys). The
acceleration can be disabled for some reason.

Maybe there is also an advanced configuration panel somewhere.

It turns out I just needed to upgrade my intel graphics drivers, which
is described here

Thanks for the hardware acceleration tip ;-)
