GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 577785
Cheese freezes when taking a picture
Last modified: 2009-04-04 08:43:51 UTC
Steps to reproduce: 1. Open cheese 2. select take picture 3. white screen appears, does not go away 4. It can be moved away, but the cheese main window is greyed out (with video still playing fine) Stack trace: The program 'cheese' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 4262 error_code 3 request_code 3 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) 0x00007f41c696ab04 in __lll_lock_wait () from /lib/libpthread.so.0 (gdb) bt
+ Trace 214151
Other information: Using 2.24.2. I can't install latest because it requires an upgrade of the gnome desktop
Known issue, fixed in 2.26. Either upgrade it or disable accessibility. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 566098 ***
