istanbul receives X system error
Last modified: 2007-04-16 16:32:41 UTC
Steps to reproduce: 1. install istanbul 2.01 on Ubuntu feisty 2. start a shell and start istanbul from the command line Stack trace: bram@bram-laptop:~$ istanbul /var/lib/python-support/python2.5/istanbul/main/tray_icon.py:26: DeprecationWarning: the module egg.trayicon is deprecated; equivalent functionality can now be found in pygtk 2.10 import egg.trayicon DEBUG: final pipeline: istximagesrc name=videosource ! video/x-raw-rgb,framerate=10/1 ! videorate ! ffmpegcolorspace ! videoscale method=1 ! video/x-raw-yuv,width=1280,height=1024,framerate=10/1 ! theoraenc ! oggmux name=mux ! filesink location=/tmp/tmpCdDkxb SaveWindow with file: /tmp/tmpCdDkxb The program 'istanbul' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 41 error_code 11 request_code 141 minor_code 19) (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.) Other information:
Hello Bram, This bug has been reported many times in Ubuntu's bug tracker, solved upstream (here) and released in Istanbul 0.2.2. Ubuntu's package should be synchronised as soon as possible with Debian's to solve this critical issue. A temporary workaround is to use directly Debian's package. Have a nice day!
