Hi Malte, Thanks I had a chance to investigate this a bit. The backtrace seems pretty clear from that where the segmentation fault is happening, although it's a bit perplexing how the server can get into that particular state. Maybe SDL is futzing up the server's modes data somehow. Seems quite plausible that this and bug 298094 have the same root cause. I reviewed the edid in that bug and it *seems* okay, although your xrandr output indicates that something obviously isn't wrong. Maybe the xserver's edid parser has a bug in it, but we'll leave that analysis to the other bug.
Anyway, whatever the root cause, this seems to be a crash in the xserver's video selection logic, attached is a change that should patch up that crash at least. ** Attachment added: "check_null_modes.patch" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21000413/check_null_modes.patch ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: xserver-xorg-video-ati => xorg-server Assignee: (unassigned) => Bryce Harrington (bryceharrington) Status: Triaged => In Progress -- SDL applications crash X server https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300310 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
