[Bug 1028274] [NEW] xwininfo segfaults if given a non-existent screen with -display option

2012-07-24 Thread David Venz
Public bug reported: I have a dual-head setup that only presents one screen to X (subdivided by xinerama). If I run xwininfo -root -display :0.0 it works as expected, giving the root window information for my single screen. If I run xwininfo -root -display :0.1 it segfaults. I expect it to

2012-08-06 Thread David Venz
No probs, I'll look into an upstream submit. My lingering concern is over how many other bits of code use libxcb in this way, and may have had their assumptions broken. I.e. is the right place to fix this problem longer term in libxcb? I guess I should let upstream decide. What's the

2016-07-27 Thread David Venz
I've been hacking at a copy of apt-mirror to make it more InRelease/by- hash aware. The attached script is *not* fit for general use, but I was able to create a local xenial mirror with it (N.B. it will download ALL sources and ALL binary arches that can be found on the mirror it's pointed at, I

[Bug 1577297] Re: echo | xargs kill -15 kills running window session

2016-06-30 Thread David Venz
Please have a look at skill.c kill_main(). It looks like in recent releases, this has switched over to using getopt_long() to process the command-line arguments. And it's treating '-1[anything]' as a kill(-1, ...) which kills *everything* you're permitted to kill except init. If I'm correct,

2016-06-30 Thread David Venz
The above commit was about 2 months ago, and going by the tags in git, 3.3.11 (the latest official release) is 11 months ago. In my view this is a pretty serious bug, and potentially deserving of a distro-level patch in the interim? -- You received this bug notification because you are a

Unfortunately while vim-gtk doesn't crash, it does perform poorly during redraws - see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vim/+bug/320700 I haven't yet found a solution on 16.04 under VMware that both performs well and doesn't crash. -- You received this bug notification because you are
