GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 416129
gnome-terminal crashes when compiz enabled
Last modified: 2007-03-23 18:56:20 UTC
Steps to reproduce: I'm running Fedora rawhide. If I have compiz (desktop effects) enabled, gnome-terminal crashes. It does so regardless what settings I have for gnome-terminal in gconf. I first filed this at Red Hat bugzilla here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=231454 Stack trace: Pending breakpoint "gdk_x_error" resolved Note: breakpoint 6 also set at pc 0x3e0d73. Breakpoint 7 at 0x3e0d73: file gdkmain-x11.c, line 608. Pending breakpoint "gdk_x_error" resolved [New Thread -1252467824 (LWP 21666)]

Other information:
Same here. As mentioned in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=231603#c1 gnome-terminal could only be opened occasionally. But then you cannot open a new tab, or it will crash. xfterm4 behaves very differently on this. It crashes even without compiz/beryl, and the output is more or less the same.
It seems fixed now, after installing an update of xorg-x11-server-Xorg According to yum.log, during Mar.18 and today, the only related package update is xorg-x11-server-Xorg.i386 1.2.99.902-1.fc7 Also xfterm4 works well now, either with/without beryl/compiz. Thanks.
This works for me now as well. I'm going to close this as NOTGNOME since Yuan indicates that it was an X-related update that fixed it.
