Comment 1 Felix Riemann 2014-12-11 21:25:01 UTC
This looks like a problem with cairo:

cairo-xlib-surface-shm.c:619: _cairo_xlib_shm_pool_create: Assertion `*ptr != ((void *)0)' failed.

The image is "only" 18000x18000px. That's big and will take some time to show up, but it shouldn't cause a problem as long as your system has enough memory. The actual current limit is (or was) at 32768px in any direction due to cairo's coordinate format and some GDK internals. Can you please report that to the cairo bugtracker?

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
However, this application does not track its bugs in the GNOME Bugzilla. We kindly ask you to report the bug to the application authors. For a selective list of other bug tracking systems please consult http://live.gnome.org/Bugsquad/TriageGuide/NonGnome.

If the affected third party application has a bug tracking system you should investigate whether a bug for the reported issue is already filed in this system. If it has not been filed yet please do so. Also ensure that both bug reports contain a link to each other.
Thanks in advance!
