@Gustavo Carneiro Yes, that's the whole point. Just forgot to add time.sleep(1) to make this happen every one second - then X won't be busy at all. That's the whole point - when developer forgets to add gtk.gdk.threads_enter() and gtk.gdk.threads_leave() this happens.If you add time.sleep(1) GTK won't be constantly updating the status icon (it will do it every one second) and top will show nothing, but screen will be still frozen. -- [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 Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to pygtk in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Hello, I've managed to write a simple testcase in Python. Hope that helps. I have something to do today, but I'll try to check out if it's possible in C.

[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 Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to pygtk in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

sabby7890, please stop nagging about viruses. This has nothing to do with viruses at all! A virus is an executable file that copies itself into another executable. This bug wouldn't in any way permit a user to write to its executable, nor any other executable, hence it's not a virus. Though it is annoying that a bug in one application is able to hang the entire desktop, it is not in any way a security issue since you have to install the application and run it manually. You should be aware that any application you run will have all the same rights as you do, including deleting all your files, which would be alot more problematic than this bug. Also, this bug doesn't affect other users. -- [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 Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to pygtk in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 321176] Re: [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze
Mr Jo-Erlend Schinstad, Virus is an application that forces computer not to work properly. Notice that most Windows viruses nowdays are not copying itself to other executables, they're just starting when computer starts (they're placed in registry - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run if I remember correctly). Recipe for virus: Write a Firefox extension that will contain malicious code using this bug, use _UNPROTECTED_ .bashrc file in user's directory and start this app by doing: sleep 10; DISPLAY=:0 ./virus_start With this trick someone can hang user's desktop 10 seconds after he logs in. User only needs to download this extension (and this is possible to create such file because it's possible to save wallpaper in user's home directory from Firefox). Of course this code needs to be injected to .bashrc, which is not write- protected (normal user can modify his own bashrc file). So this IS clearly a security issue. You see, most Windows computers are infected because of users installing software from P2P networks. Anyone can even post an application on GnomeFiles.org, no one checks these. If someone will install such app (even from DEB package) on his computer, you known what can happen. So IMHO this should be fixed immediately! With this trick, someone can make user's computer unusable. Before someone figures out to check .bashrc, user will reinstall Linux or install Windows. You can even name the virus instead of virus_start something like gnome- session or similiar. Any app from Gnomefiles or Firefox extension can make the executable working by doing chmod +x virus. See? No need to infect other executables in order to destroy a system. If someone will post that this app on Gnomefiles makes computer hang on every boot, virus could activate for example on 1st of September. That's why I think that bug with hanging desktop should be fixed with nr 1 priority. But there's another thing: This X11-hanging bug happens in Fedora 11 too, so it's not Ubuntu- specific.

[Bug 321176] Re: [Jaunty] alarm-clock causes screen to freeze
Here's how I think you can reproduce the problem. Just write a program (C or Python, doesn't matter) that: 1. Creates a toplevel window (make it a fullscreen window for increased effect) 2. calls gdk_pointer_grab on that window 3. never calls gdk_pointer_ungrab From that moment on, the program captures the pointer (and as side effect also the keyboard). Consequently, the clueless user thinks that X is frozen, when in actual fact is just poorly written app grabs the pointer and never ungrabs it. This is *NOT* a PyGTK bug. This is *NOT* a Gtk+ bug. This is *NOT* a Xorg bug. Every programmer that ever needed to write code to grab the mouse pointer will occasionally temporarily write code that grabs the pointer but forgets to ungrab it. I have been there myself. But the X session is not completely frozen. You can recover by pressing CtrlAltF1, login in a linux console, and manually kill the offending program. Then you can go back to the X11 console (normally AltF7), and everything is back to normal. And by the way, I am tired of receiving these messages about a non-pygtk bug just because I am watching pygtk bugs in general. If someone knows of a way for me to opt out, please let me know.

Sorry, sabby, I hope I wasn't too offensive, not my intention. Hoping you meant someone else. :) You are right, this is a very tiny mistake.

There is no Unsubscribe on the right, because I am not directly subscribed, only the launchpad team GNOME Python Maintainers is subscribed, so I received emails too.

I won't unsubscribe, because this patricular bug number 321176 is related to my application Alarm Clock. I am subscribed automatically to any bug that is triggered in my application, because I am the main developer. I wanted to say that THIS bug can be closed because Alarm Clock no longer suffers from it, and freezing desktop when you do strace is not a bug in Alarm Clock. Please don't tell me to unsubscribe from my own bugzilla. Anyway, I am trying to write a testcase to demonstrate the bug. The bug itself was caused (I think) by doing changes on the status icon from outside of main GTK loop without gtk.gdk.threads_enter() and gtk.gdk.threads_leave(). This funcion reads birthdays from a file on hard drive, checks if there's a birthday today, and then changes the status icon tooltip and icon. This is not efficent, because it does that every second and every second it sets the Alarm-Clock's tray icon to normal or alarm-caution.svg. That's why I am reimplementing it, but this seems to trigger the bug. -- [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 Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to pygtk in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Original, more detailed, version of this comment lost due to launchpad bugs. This bug is present on Ubuntu 9.04 with the latest version of the package from the repository installed (including stable, testing, and unstable). gustavo appears to be incorrect; this is not your run of the mill grab pointer bug; the system responds to mouse events, you just can't see the result. sabby7890's patch is already applied. It is also a bad patch file since it was produced without using diff -u and will therefore apply incorrectly and without warning to a modified or different version of the file. I have changed the status from invalid to confirmed.This package is broken, whether or not the problem exists in the application code itself.Until a new package is released that has either a workaround that actually works or depends on a new version of pygtk that fixes the problem, this bug should not be closed. The new package version alluded to in #369549 is not available to apt- get in stable/testing/unstable/jaunty-updates. Perhaps this will change soon.

[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! If *somebody* is able to successfully start and use Alarm Clock in Jaunty, then put it into the repository. -- [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 Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to pygtk in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

@Scott Kitterman The bug was, as far as I could tell in alarm-clock, not some other package. which is why I changed the status.

[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 Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to pygtk in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

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.

[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?

Ok, but for anyone who upgrades from 8.10 to 9.04 and uses alarm-clock, their desktop will be inaccessible to them.
