[Bug 321176] Re: [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze
About your test case: 1. It uses threads with incorrect locking, see attached patch to fix it; 2. In my system, X is not frozen, just becomes very slow. But the program is asking for trouble by continually updating the status icon in a while True: loop without even a pause for breath between each loop; 3. I am actually able to kill the program with a simple Ctrl-C, evidencing that X is not completely frozen. So perhaps this is just a performance issue wrt gtk status icons. I see no bug here, just a denial of service. Or we could consider a gtk bug for momentarily freezing an entire X session while a status icon is being updated. ** Attachment added: test case with thread safety fixed http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26244131/p.diff -- [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/321176 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 321176] Re: [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze
I don't care if the issue is in the alarm-clock, pygtk or somewhere else. The fact is that if I select Applications - Add/Remove... and search for an alarm clock I get package alarm-clock. If I then proceed to install it and ever start it, my X session is immediately frozen. Happens on both x86_64 and i386 variants. Luckily, I know how to kill the application from another virtual terminal (I had to try killing processes until I hit alarm-clock, though...). However, an average Ubuntu user would think that the whole Ubuntu install just crashed. Just upgrade, downgrade or remove the alarm-clock from the repositories immediately. It's clear that the software was NEVER even started during the release process of Jaunty!

[Bug 321176] Re: [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze
It was a bug in Alarm Clock, indeed. But, it's still a bug in other package too - with this bug, a userspace application can hang the whole user's machine on purprose - this is called a virus. This can be used even by some malicious Firefox extensions. I strongly recommend someone to take a look at this and fix it in PyGTK package. I know that everything user needs to do is to switch to console and killall alarm- clock. But removing viruses from Windows is easy too, and causal users usually don't know how to do this. If any application will call repeatedly a GTK function (in this case it was updating the status icon) from outside of the main GTK loop, it will hang. I forgot to enter the main loop, but as everyone noticed it was working in previous Ubuntu releases. ** Attachment added: Fix http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26153383/alarm-clock-ubuntu.patch -- [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/321176 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 321176] Re: [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze
I am not only seeing alarm-clock hang the UI, but it is locking up my computer. Happened 2x in a row. This is on Jaunty amd64. I don't have time to troubleshoot it, so am removing the package. -- [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/321176 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 321176] Re: [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze
I had the same problem upgrading to 9.04. The system crashed during the upgrade (twice!), but was far enough with upgrading the system just started normal. And after a dpkg --configure -a in the rescue mode, I thought all was done. But now alarm-clock started this bug after login. Not knowing what was causing the hang (i could go back to the other virtual terminals of course with ctrl-alt-Fn), I figured that the failed upgrade itself was the cause and had messed up my system. Thus I went through a backup restore process and trying the upgrade again (which failed again btw). It then finally dawned me it was something that was crashing the system during the gnome startup of the panel (alarm-clock was autostarted). And finally, about 4 hours later i found about the alarm-clock and how I could remove the applet, hidden in the .gconf/apps/panel/applets/ directory. Now my system works great, but alarm-clock is gone from my system. I don't know which idiot thought this could be released in 9.04, but it should have been disabled or have given a warning during the upgrade!! It irritates me that this was known for months and nobody did anything to alleviate this bug. That's what the whole unstable testing release cycle is for: to make sure these bugs are not affecting normal users.

[Bug 321176] Re: [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze
I agree. If it was just alarm-clock, it'd been ok. It's not a critical application, and it's not supported. But it isn't just alarm-clock. This also happens if you try to strace something in gnome-terminal at least. Other things cause this to happen as well. I think this bug should've been marked with high priority and fixed before release. I hope it'll be fixed quickly, cause this is really annoying, and as you said, people who are running alarm-clock on startup, will have a useless system unless they're able to figure this out.

You start asking why and end up assuming you know there is no why. Why it's mark invalid against alarm-clock is that the bug (that manifests via alarm-clock) is caused by a problem in another package.

[Bug 321176] Re: [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze
All - I am not quite sure how to proceed. I can confirm the issue is the use of deprecated classes. Running alarm-clock using Python 2.5 on Jaunty resolves the issue with alarm-clock. Having 2.5 installed along-side 2.6 broke all kinds of other things in my VM, I wouldn't suggest it. Python should be handling the errors a lot better, c'est la vie. I have managed to patch my local copy, it seems to be working fine. I can; 1. Post the diffs where google can find them, people will have to apply the patches. 2. Fork the project, post the updated code to github then forget about. 3. Fork the project, rename/rebrand it, ask the MOTU's to add it to the repos. 3a. We are way, way past the Jaunty hard freeze, this likely wouldn't happen soon. 3b. Also, I hate to do that to the original developer. 4. Something else? Can I get my patch added to the current package with the original developer? Suggestions?

Ok, but for anyone who upgrades from 8.10 to 9.04 and uses alarm-clock, their desktop will be inaccessible to them. (they will have to use recovery mode to uninstall alarm-clock, or a virtual console to kill it). This seems like a major problem that needs to be address *before* release, so that users of alarm-clock don't end up being locked out of their desktop.

[Bug 321176] Re: [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze
As I've told before, this isn't Alarm Clock's fault. Why? Because this is written in Python and from Python side I can't even manage memory to crash like this. There is a bug in Python binding to some library in new Ubuntu (I know because it crashes for me too). The only way to manage memory is to use Python's garbage collector which won't cause crash like this. /var/lib/python-support/python2.6/gtk-2.0/gtk/_gtk.so[0x7f6fbf7218e0] This line tells that it's because of broken GTK binding for Python in Ubuntu 8.10. If Python code can crash C library it's not the Python application's bug but security issue in Python or Python binding for some library - Python is only a scripting language just like perl or php. It seems like a bug in PyGTK.
