Aaron asked me to test his version via PPA As noted in the original bug report; this bug was annoying... as was hitting me often enough I stopped using Lubuntu & used Xfce & GNOME instead while, before returning to LXQt though I replaced `openbox` as WM with `xfwm4` (to avoid issues).
(note: times are likely AEST as I'm getting this detail from my hexchat IRC logs; but if verification/UTC times are needed read https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2023/03/20/%23lubuntu-devel.txt etc where 13:09:35 is recorded as [02:09] on irclogs.ubuntu.com) Mar 20 12:53:24 <arraybolt3> OK, will push to a PPA and have available for testing shortly. Mar 20 12:54:19 <guiverc> :) (but also followed by a rather quick :( as that'll require me to make a change (to test) & then LOGOUT so I can re-login; the logout is the :( ) Mar 20 13:09:35 <arraybolt3> https://launchpad.net/~arraybolt3/+archive/ubuntu/openbox I installed the patched version on Aaron's PPA --- openbox: Installed: 3.6.1-10ubuntu1~ppa1 Candidate: 3.6.1-10ubuntu1~ppa1 Version table: *** 3.6.1-10ubuntu1~ppa1 500 500 https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/arraybolt3/openbox/ubuntu lunar/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.6.1-10 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lunar/universe amd64 Packages --- Selected copy/pastes from my hexchat log --- Mar 20 14:35:17 <guiverc> quick play and no crashes (or FIRES!) arraybolt3 ; I'll use normally; but I was getting openbox crash maybe hourly as I recall prior to fix (why I switched to other DEs then swapped out openbox).. currently using 3.6.1-10ubuntu1~ppa1 Mar 21 09:38:45 <guiverc> fyi arraybolt3 , have had no openbox crashes... Mar 22 13:14:28 <guiverc> arraybolt3, another day & no openbox crashes... (last was @Mar 16 09:46 my local time; then I switched to other DEs... then back to LXQt but xfwm4 instead of openbox... been using openbox again since your PPA) --- I've been using my primary system since then without issue. My usage is normal, I suspend at night then resume in the morning. I rebooted system earlier today, logged in and returned to normal usage. I have experienced no issues, system has been stable as I expect from Lubuntu :) --- guiverc@d7050-next:~$ neofetch --off guiverc@d7050-next ------------------ OS: Lubuntu Lunar Lobster (development branch) x86_64 Host: OptiPlex 7050 Kernel: 6.1.0-16-generic Uptime: 2 hours, 59 mins Packages: 3100 (dpkg), 12 (snap) Shell: bash 5.2.15 Resolution: 1680x1050, 1920x1080, 1920x1080 DE: LXQt 1.2.0 WM: Openbox Theme: Arc-Darker [GTK2/3] Icons: oxygen [GTK2/3] Terminal: qterminal Terminal Font: Ubuntu Mono 14 CPU: Intel i5-6500 (4) @ 3.600GHz GPU: Intel HD Graphics 530 Memory: 7864MiB / 15852MiB -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to glib2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2011751 Title: openbox crashed with SIGABRT Status in glib2.0 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in openbox package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Lubuntu lunar (primary box) on - dell [optiplex] 7050 (i5-6500, 16gb, intel hd530/i915) I experienced a crash yesterday (openbox) but tend to ignore the first crashes... Whilst using the machine again today a crash occurred. This is my primary box, so my setup is pretty consistent - featherpad (restored session) - hexchat (irc) - qterminal (only single tab today; usually many) - firefox (snap, most sites excluding google related) - chromium (snap, used for anything google related) - telegram (snap) - element I was using chromium full screen (trying to read my gmail inbox) when borders around windows disappeared & I lost the capacity to switch between windows; mouse would move, but keyboard appeared mostly dead (it wasn't, more I think windows weren't responding, inc. clicks with mouse though that's likely inconsistent; I could [not] work out how to describe it yesterday, but todays is almost identical). I switched to text terminal (ctrl+alt+f4) & explored; returned to GUI and used - ctrl+alt+t to open new terminal - openbox & session returned to what I expect... ** expected outcome Openbox doesn't crash ** actual outcome all windows lost borders, and i lost ability to switch between windows I appeared to have minimal control (not true, more a fraction of what I expect) ** How to get crash For me, - I used chromium (browser) - make chromium full screen (ie. F11) - click on link/something & right-click to open in new window OPENBOX CRASH.
