GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 634832
black slideshow + crash
Last modified: 2010-12-07 13:23:33 UTC
Reproduce it: - run gthumb - go to a directory with photos - hit f5 -> instead of the slideshow you see a black screen - alt-f4 in order to switch the black screen off - hit f5 again -> crash the result when gthumb is run from the terminal: $ gthumb The program 'gthumb' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 10693 error_code 9 request_code 137 minor_code 7) (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.) When you hit f5 the first time and you get the black screen you can switch to gthumb or to another app with alt-tab, but you must hit alt-f4 in order to switch off the black screen. If instead of closing the black screen you go back to gthumb main window and hit f5, another black screen instance is generated.
I'm almost sure 2.11 didn't suffer this bug
Yes I can confirm this bug. [New Thread 2193] [New Thread 2197] [New Thread 2194] Core was generated by `gthumb'. Program terminated with signal 6, Aborted.

Which version are you guys running? I cannot reproduce using latest git master http://git.gnome.org/browse/gthumb/commit/?id=bfa536ba9212e2a61a08c76b5a77016767528c54
2.12 master
I can reproduce it in master http://git.gnome.org/browse/gthumb/commit/?id=bfa536ba9212e2a61a08c76b5a77016767528c54 : black screen when hitting f5
So there must be something different with your system. Does it occur in any directory ? The slideshow uses clutter, so maybe a problem there. I have libclutter-gtk-0.10-0 Version: 0.10.4-0ubuntu1
$ aptitude show libclutter-gtk-0.10-0 Package: libclutter-gtk-0.10-0 New: yes State: installed Automatic install: yes Version: 0.10.4-1ubuntu3
with all dirs
Ok we maybe have something What about libclutter-1.0-0 ? I have Version: 1.2.4-0ubuntu1 (Ubuntu lucid) I suppose you have 1.2.12-0ubuntu13 (Ubuntu maverick ?) After that I can't be of much more help...
$ aptitude show libclutter-1.0-0 Pacchetto: libclutter-1.0-0 Nuovo: sì Stato: installato Installato automaticamente: sì Versione: 1.2.12-0ubuntu13
Paolo (meaning Bacchilega), can you reproduce with this version of libclutter ? Looks like there's a break there.
With git master, I just get a black screen for the slideshow, if I have a transition effect enabled. No crash though. This happens using the embedded Intel video chipset, as well as a Radeon card (so it is not a driver issue). clutter-1.2.14-1.fc14.1.x86_64 - Mike
this is a bug in clutter-gtk fixed since version 0.10.6
