[Bug 48199] Re: multimon crashes Xorg when window is closed
I've traced the problem, and found out that in xdisplay.c the code
leads to a kil(-1, SIGTERM) [in fact 2^32-1).
This kills all processes down to init (or at least all processes owned by a
user. And you know,
as soon as your session-manager dies, it's the end of your session ;)
Tom Sailor (the author) did actually fix the problem in his upstream version at
http://www.baycom.org/~tom/ham/linux/multimon.tar.bz2
and I confirm that his solution fixes the problem.
Tom's fix in that version is:

[Bug 48199] Re: multimon crashes Xorg
I also found this. Killing the program from another shell doesn't cause the error - just when the scope window is closed by clicking the close window dialog. It is a problem with the scope function. A simple way to prevent the error is to compile out the scope function: In multimon.h, change the #define ALL_DEMOD removing the scope module (monfix.patch) It's not a perfect fix, but the important function of the program is restored (genfix.patch) In the gen.c file there is also a bug which prevents creation of non-raw format files. Fix attached attached. ** Attachment added: Patch to disable broken x scope feature which causes hard crash of X http://launchpadlibrarian.net/7920404/monfix.patch -- multimon crashes Xorg https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/48199 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
