I cannot run gnome-shell 2.29.0 in Xephyr on Mandriva Cooker. I get this error: [goetz@n5 ~]$ Xephyr :4& [1] 13999 [goetz@n5 ~]$ Xephyr unable to use SHM XImages _XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root record: RECORD extension enabled at configure time. record: This extension is known to be broken, disabling extension now.. record: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20500 [goetz@n5 ~]$ DISPLAY=:4 gnome-shell record: RECORD extension enabled at configure time. record: This extension is known to be broken, disabling extension now.. record: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20500 ** ClutterGLX:ERROR:clutter-backend-glx.c:249:clutter_backend_glx_get_features: assertion failed: (glXGetCurrentDrawable () != None) Shell killed with signal 6 [goetz@n5 ~]$ record: RECORD extension enabled at configure time. record: This extension is known to be broken, disabling extension now.. record: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20500
When I use the --xephyr option to gnome-shell, I get a black window and this error: xauth: creating new authority file /home/goetz/tmp/gnome-shell.uV8sOF/database Xephyr unable to use SHM XImages _XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root record: RECORD extension enabled at configure time. record: This extension is known to be broken, disabling extension now.. record: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20500 Traceback (most recent call last):

Created attachment 180594 [details] [review] gnome-shell: remove Xephyr support Built-in Xephyr support was an important debugging/development feature for a while, but it is no longer especially useful (and has been mostly broken since Clutter 1.4 anyway).
Review of attachment 180594 [details] [review]: Yes please =)
