How many failures occur in 10 runs of thunderbird under valgrind? How many failures occur in 10 runs if you reboot just before each run?
Thunderbird is a user mail agent that uses interactive graphics. How many failures occur before the display window appears, and how many after? Are the symptoms and frequency the same for a Radeon card as for NVidia? On the open-source NVidia driver versus the proprietary driver? In "dumb framebuffer" mode ("no" acceleration)? Please tell us which cards: "lspci -nn | grep VGA" or similar. Are the symptoms and frequency the same for Firefox as for thunderbird? Are the symptoms and frequency the same for Chrome as for thunderbird? Please present a histogram of the {mapped file, pc offset, instruction stream} when the SIGSEGV happens. [You should have at least 70 runs by now: 10 each for thunderbird plain, with reboot, other graphics card, other NVidia driver, dumb framebuffer, Firefox, Chrome.] thunderbird is not available from the Debian stable "jessie" repository (Debian 8.7.1, 2017-01-20.) Where did you get it? Which kernel modules have been loaded (lsmod)? Which version(s) of the low-level X11 and display drivers (DRM: direct rendering manager) are in use? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Valgrind-users mailing list Valgrind-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/valgrind-users
