GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 152488
crash on toolbar setup
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
epiphany crashes on toolbar setup when xorg composite extension enabled (xorg 6.8). need to set XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS environment variable to 1 to get it working.
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 150259 ***
bug 150259 has been closed without a solution. removing composite support is a workaround, not a valid solution.
X.org composite extension breaking apps is a bug in composite extension, IMHO.
according to xorg it's not a bug, but the missing variable: http://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1145
Well, it's breaking backwards compatibility, since you didn't have to set that var before.
