GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 765655
Crash: "Native children wider or taller than 65535 pixels are not supported"

Created attachment 326832 [details] Backtrace gnome-shell consistently crashes with "Native children wider or taller than 65535 pixels are not supported" followed by an X error and SIGTRAP after launching Kerbal Space Program 1.1.0. While the client application may well be doing the wrong thing here, gnome-shell should probably not fall on its sword. It sometimes crashes repeatedly, which forces a full session logout. I'm OK with C but my GTK+ and X11 skill is pretty nonexistent so I'm not sure how to produce a simple test case to reproduce this crash. It's trivial if you have the problem application, but it's not free.

I saw crashes on Fedora 21 before upgrading today, too. Fedora crash report analysis (F23): * https://retrace.fedoraproject.org/faf/reports/1057262/ Possibly related reports elsewhere (by error message, seen with different client applications): * https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=678729 * https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/843265 * https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt4-x11/+bug/805303
I have a fix for this issue locally but there's a problem with it that still needs to be addressed. Will attach here when ready.
Mmh, we also have a patch for this in RHEL we could use ...

GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
