[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 731424] Re: X crashes when I set a Python Tkinter edit control to display a long text string in 25pt DejaVu font
This bug mysteriously seems to have returned on my old Ubuntu 11.04 box (which is still taking security updates); is it possible that the 11.04 package has regressed? X11 crashes when a 25pt Tk input box contains a lot of text and you click in it and press Home, or Control-A for Select All. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/731424 Title: X crashes when I set a Python Tkinter edit control to display a long text string in 25pt DejaVu font To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/731424/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 745608] Re: [915GM] font corruption on Intel GMA900
The DebugWait workaround worked for me on an EeePC 900 using Ubuntu 11.10. I added it to /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/11-evdev-quirks.conf as there weren't any xorg.conf files in /etc. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/745608 Title: [915GM] font corruption on Intel GMA900 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/745608/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Actually the problem has not completely disappeared after the DebugWait workaround. But it does seem to be much less frequent. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/745608 Title: [915GM] font corruption on Intel GMA900 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/745608/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 731424] Re: X crashes when I set a Python Tkinter edit control to display a long text string in 25pt DejaVu font
Thanks, I installed Bryce's 2 .deb files with dpkg -i, and now X no longer crashes when I run the above Python script (or the application I'm developing that I hit this in). But as you say there are still problems displaying the text. The characters are displayed only when they are selected with the mouse's click and drag to select text function, and even then it seems to depend on the exact mouse movements used to make the selection (paint from right to left usually works, left to right sometimes). Still I think it's a good idea to keep the fix for the X crash even if we can't get to the bottom of the Tk problem, because an X crash is vastly more serious than a text display problem. (A Tk problem makes one app hard to read, but an X crash might kill 25 other windows with unsaved data!) Thanks.
