Emacs GTK problem

Hi, recently, emacs has stopped working.  I can run it with a command line interface with the -rw switch and it works fine.  However, the graphical version does not work.  It just hangs at the command line and to exit I have to do Ctrl-Z and then kill the process.  Here is a gdb backtrace of starting emacs.

It seems there are a lot of people using oxygen-gtk… So, previous topic on this very thing: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1262759
Sadly the only option now is to change gtk3 theme to something different than oxygen-gtk.

  • EMac Monitor Problem

    Alright, I have an eMac G4, I think its 2nd or 3rd gen.  Recently it has been having some trouble with its screen.
    It boots up fine, but after no more than 20 minutes, the screen goes off.  The light doesn't start pulsating and I can't turn it on again without turning off and on again, where I can have another 20 minutes TOPS.  This only works for about three to five cycles before it has to sit without power for about a day before I can see anything.  Booting in the normal OS (10.4.11) and its resore DVD(10.3.3) bolth have this problem.  However, the Hardware Test extended test will find no problem, and the screen will stay on for hours if it is booted from the Hardware Test partition on the restore DVD.  It has had this problem for a long time, but repairing permissions on the harddrive and removing/ replacing the backup battery seemed to work temporarily, until now.
    When the screen goes off, I can still eject CDs, adjust volume, and it will play the error sound effect if I punch random keys.
    I also have another eMac (first gen 700mhz) that works well except for its CD-RW drive.  If I can't get the newer eMac working, I would like to salvage as much as possible and upgrade the older one.  What all can be transfered? The whole logic board, RAM, HD, Superdrive?  Any Combination?  I am in need of a little more computing power, and been needing a new CD drive for years...
    Thanks!

    The best gadget for stubborn dust deposits is a pastry brush. Make sure you get one with a wodden handle and natural bristles to avoid static isses. I have close to a dozen in various sizes and shapes in my computer kit.
    Be sure you know the exact version of the eMac you have before looking up take-down instructions. There are two variants: those with USB 1.1 logic boards and 700Mhz, 800Mhz, and 1Ghz processors; and those with a USB 2.0 logic board. The latter are mostl y1.25 and 1.42G processors but there are some uncataloged "edu-only" eMacs with the USB2 board but only a 1Ghz processor. That;s the version that leads be to this caution.
    The case take-apart is slightly different between the original 4,4 eMacs and the later 6,4 versions. Some people have broken the power switch while trying to use the older instructions to take about a newer eMac.
    The 4,4 and 6,4 codes come from System Profiler (Apple menu > About this Mac and then click the "More Info..." button). It the second line of the opening Profiler screen. A code of 4,4 on your computer means it's USB 1.1 and a code of 6,4 means it;s the later USB 2.0 version.

  • EMac monitor problem: bad caps or rastor shift or... ?

    Something is wrong with my brother's eMac. About three years or so ago he had the bad caps (leaky capacitators) problem, and sent it off to Apple and got it repaired. But that wasn't the end of it. About a year ago the problem returned, though not in quite the same form. Originally, his eMac would freeze and get funny colours. This time if he has it set to anything higher than 256 colours the screen not only gets funny colours but appears to display twice (the top of the screen occurs again at the bottom, though it is hard to see in the pic). Here is pic:
    The grey square in the middle is the cursor and it is selecting the monitor resolution/colors. The square surrounding it is the pull down menu which occurs again above it if you can make it out.
    On 256 colurs, which is the only resolution he can work at, you get the following:
    Here is a closer look:
    It is only the small rectangles which are crazy colors - the rest is normal. Does this suggest that it is only one or two faulty caps, while the rest are fine? What else could this problem be?
    Also, if we send it back to Apple, will they fix the problem again for free?

    Looks more like the video ram is (has) failed to me you could try Apple again but don't think it will get repaired for free and probably not worth the cost as if it's a 1.25Ghz machine it's now around 7 years old and the CRT will probably go belly up soon as well - sorry.

  • Emac display problems etc

    Hi, I have an emac g4 that has a number of problems, It is a 1.25gz. Sometimes it will boot to a blue, blank screen, on holding down the alt key I see the boot drive and I can start up (10.4os) but will go to the blue screen again. When it does start up properly, which it does for no apparent reason, there are little dash shaped spots on the screen and a flashing horizontal flicker. I ran fsck and disk utility and installed a fresh version of 10.4 to no avail. I do not have the original disks so cannot run hardware test. The computer falls under the Apple emac screen repair but they will not accept it because it is out of the three year time limit, very frustrating and unfair. I read about an IVAD cable that can be replaced to repair the problem but am not sure if it is relevant to this problem. I would be very grateful for any ideas, thanking you in advance,
    Connor

    Hey conner..,
    The computer falls under the Apple emac screen repair but they will not accept it because it is out of the three year time limit, very frustrating and unfair.
    Well there are Apple Stores and there are Apple stores. Is this the actual store?
    Others have had their eMacs repaire even tho' it was beyond the 3 year limit. You just need to talk to the right person. I've had this done twice.
    I read about an IVAD cable that can be replaced to repair the problem but am not sure if it is relevant to this problem.
    That problem was only on the 700 AFAIK.

  • EMac display problems connected to FCP problems?

    I've posted this problem on the boards before, but figured its about time to give it another go. I've an eMac running OS X.3.3 and FCP 4.5 (along with the rest of the Production Suite package minus motion). Over the summer, I had brought the computer to my collegue's work studio. There we have a G5 (1.8 GHz) and a G4 desktop (dunno the specs). I had transfered a project from my eMac to the G4 and finished it there. While working on it, the still pictures apparently all went offline but when clicked, they showed up in the viewer just fine.
    I finished the project on the G4 in the studio and moved it back (via ethernet network) to the eMac. When I did this, the problem came with it. In addition, whenever I put text on a project in FCP, it would be green and partly transparent.
    Then I noticed certain buttons in FCP were not readable on a few pop-up menus (The 'set scratch disks' menu in particular). There are a black pixelated rectangle with the button-ends instead. Also, when I run Toast Titanium (for burning TS folders from DVD Studio Pro) there are several lines across the program window that appear static-y.
    In a hopefully unrelated problem, the eMac (Now back at my house) gets stuck while 'allocating disk space' during capture now. I'm trying to capture to one of my 2 external drives. The one in question is a lacie 250 gig that has a fantom 250 gig daisychained through it into one of the two firewire ports on the computer.
    PUH-LEESE give some advice if you have any. I've resorted to the version of Premiere Pro on the PC, which is ok, but not up to par with FCP.

    First of all, your last question - when you trash prefs it removes the limit on Capture now. That tells FCP to allocate every last bit of disk space when doing a capture now, thus the beach ball when capturing Now to external drives. Go into your prefs and limit Capture Now. Also, if you are running Norton or Virex, don't. They will also cause the beachball during capture. You can read all about it in Shane's stock answers at the top of the forum.
    Second - your display issues - do you have the colors set to Millions? As to the apparently "offline" media, that's just your thumbnail cache. You can delete that and it will be rebuilt.

  • EMac - Modem problem ?

    I am using dial-up internet access with the Emac internal modem....when my modem is plugged in, and I am NOT connected to the internet, my home phone cannot receive incoming calls. This happens even when the eMac is switched off. I have tried connecting my wifes Vaio to the same cable and there is no problem.
    However I can still connect to the internet....what is happening here ?
    Emac   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Mike-F,
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I've seen similar behavior from a TDD device partially shorting the phone line and separately from a bad phone cord attached to a computer. If the phones work normally when the Vaio is connected to the cable, that suggests the problem is with the eMac's modem putting too much of a current drain on the phone line even when it's not connected. I'd replace the phone line anyway (phone cords are cheap to replace and prone to kink and partially fray inside anyway). A phone line noise filter placed between the eMac and the wall outlet may help too and is also a fairly cheap thing to try.
    You can also try booting to Apple Hardware Test (AHT) and seeing what it reports about the modem. Depending on which Mac model you have (you may want to add CPU speed to your profile), AHT will be either a separate CD or a bootable partition on your OS X Install or Restore DVD, in which case you can select it using Startup Manager.

  • Update xfree 4.3 and gtk problem

    I have 2 problem after update from pacman -Syu:
    1. the font in the gtk application is disappeared. gftp, rox, xchat and more
        see example: http://web.ntrade.it/shot/gftp.jpg
        and gnome 2.2 d'ont work.
    2. The vmware start error:
    $ vmware
    XIO:  fatal IO error 0 (Success) on X server ":0.0"
          after 3797 requests (3796 known processed) with 27 events remaining.
    someone has some idea. Tanks for help

    Ok. I thought I'd check this with the X (ver 4.3.0-2) I have installed before downloading the updates for my systems (which may take some time.) So far, from a clean install and having the init hacks in place, vmware installed and seems to run fine. I will try this again after I get whatever files I must have via ftp but I'm on a 56k ISP so it will be at least late tomorrow for sure.
    You might try re-installing from the tarball although I don't know how much difference this will make. Unfortunately, there is no uninstall option for the non-rpm install method.
    FWIW, the init hacks mentioned in the other vmware install text are simply to fool the installer. IIRC, the config never touches them at any later date. All vmware needs for proper operation is the daemon run at startup and properly compiled modules. With this in mind, it might be possible to create a pacman PKGBUILD file than can install the program. This is simply an excercise in logic as they are developing version 4 which is in beta release right now.

  • Emacs GTK error. Can't open an X windows.

    Hi,
    Whenever I try to open emacs, I get the following errors:

    (emacs:8006): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_distribute_natural_allocation: assertion `extra_space >= 0' failed
    I've searched for the error on the internet but I haven't come up with anything satisfactory to get emacs running. Does anyone have a good idea of how to get my emacs up and running again?
    Thank you.

    Works for me. I'm running [testing] 32-bit.

  • Emac G4 problems with joining Airport Extreme network

    I have an Airport Extreme network with two Airport Express base stations. The Airport Extreme is connected to the internet via ethernet/cable modem. The imac and the base stations work fine and I have no problem with my internet access on the imac, but I can't get internet access via the emac. It appears that the emac is connected to the network, but I get an error message ("Can't find server") when I try to access the internet. What have I done wrong?

  • Terminal - emacs command problem

    Reading some interesting information on a Mac Hints website, I discovered you could play some simple games in Terminal using the 'emacs' command. But it doesn't seem to work.
    I can get the list of games using the: *ls /usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/play* command but when I type 'emacs' after to enable the playing of the games I get the following message:
    *dumpemacs: Must be run as root unless -n is used*
    *emacs: child exited with status 1*
    According to the website I read, it should start emacs, then I use Esc+x to go back to the prompt then type the name of the game I want to play but after that message has appeared, if I type the name of a game, I just get 'Command Not Found'
    What is wrong?

    Fixed the problem!
    I think it may be something to do with upgrading from Jaguar to Tiger but instead of typing 'emacs', if I type 'emacs-21.2.1' emacs starts up fine and I'm then able to access the hidden games and programs.
    Although I've solved the problem, is it possible to get it to run the emacs command by just typing 'emacs'?

  • Sever emacs-23 problems

    I have three problems since the upgrade to emacs 23 earlier this month.
    1. When not connected to the Internet, emacs takes infinity and a week to start.
        Comment:
       In the PROBLEMS file included in the emacs package, it was suggested that emacs was trying to resolve its email address, that, for SUNs at least, the statically linked version of some library (probably libresolv) lacked some code contained in the dynamically linked version.  Emacs uses the statically linked version.  Certainly, setting the nameserver to localhost in /etc/resolv.conf greatly reduces the starting time.
    2. When starting emacs using the fvwm2 windows manager, the emacs frame is infinitely large, and quite unusable.
        Comment
        Emacs behaves normally if twm is used instead of fvwm2.
        Fix (well, hardly a fix): I re-compiled emacs from scratch myself, and with my version, the problem does not occur.
        Might be an xserver issue, as I note that Ctrl/Alt-BACKSPACE no longer works.
    3. Emacs takes about 5 seconds to  start up even with Internet if it is started from an xterm.
        Comment:
        At work I use Windows, and a 5 second start is normal for most windows applications.  But this is one major reason for me not to use Windows, whence my frustration with emacs.
    Final Comment:
    I was using the CVS version (also version 23) before I left for a holiday  at the end of July without any problems.  After my holiday, I upgraded Auch Linux. and then the problems started.  I suspect the xserver and possibly shared libraries rather than emacs itself.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Mike Dowling

    Thanks very much for the reply.
    1.  You are right!  This is a little embarrassing as I had thought of /etc/hosts but ruled it out because I knew it to be correct.  But it had somehow been overwritten.
    2. Still unsolved.  The frame fonts are identical.  Subsequent frames are similarly large.  (They start off the correct size, and then bloat after a splity second, just as the primary frame does.)
    The version I compiled myself was straight foward, without any configure options except --disable-nls.  I note that ldd indicates that my version is linked to very much fewer shared libraries.
    I cannot see the result of executing that elisp segment of code as the frame is too large; I never get anywhere nere the echo area.  All I ever get to see is the top, left hand corner of the frame.  I've tried to reduce the size with the mouse, but eventually had to give up.  The frame appears to me to be infinite.
    3. Again, thanks for the tip.  There is no delay with emacs -Q or emacs -q, whence the problem must lie with my .emacs file.  That should be sufficient for me to track down the problem!  (Again, embarrassing; I should have tested that without being prompted.)

  • Oxygen-gtk Problems

    I'm trying out KDE, and trying to get my GTK+ apps to blend in. I followed the instructions on the wiki, and everything seems to work except:
    All of KDE's lovely special effects stopped working. (even though they're still turned on)
    When I try to log out or shut down, the ui freezes, and I have to turn off, or kill X from another tty.
    This only seems to happen when I install and set up oxygen-gtk2 and oxygen-gtk3. When I disable them and/or remove them the special effects come back, and I can log out and shut down normally.
    P.S. I'm using KDM. When I log out, and it freezes, I kill X and I'm instantly returned to the KDM interface.

    Pretty sure this fixed most of it, though I can tell there's still remains of the problem sitting around because oygen-icons is a dependency for something I have.
    Edit: Now when installing things with yaourt I get the error "missing dependency for kdebase-runtime : oxygen-icons".

  • EMac Fan Problem

    Hi there.
    I have a curious problem with an eMac. The exhaust fan does not spin at all. This is even after replacing it with a new one that I purchased. I have checked and re-checked all the connections between the fan assembly and the machine itself and everything looks fine. Is there something I'm missing? I replaced the fan as I could see it wasn't spinning, plus the Hardware Test CD gave this error code: 2FAN/2/1:MLB
    The reason I had to suspect something was wrong with this machine was that when netbooting it would get so far (Connect to the server, start to download the image) then power itself off completely. So I assumed it was overheating.
    Anyone have any ideas as to where I'm going wrong? Or if I am? Is this perhaps indicative of a deeper problem?
    Thanks in advance!

    Tough to say for sure, but sounds like either the thermistor that measures the heat in the computer or the speed control circuit is shot. Unfortunately I do not know where either is in the machine.
    As a work around, you could run +12V (assuming it is a +12V fan) from the power supply to the fan connector directly so that fan is full on all the time. Might be kind of noisy, but at least then you would have cooling. It might be your fan runs full on most of the time anyway, so the noise may not be any worse than usual.
    Did you test the old fan? If you still have it, put the proper voltage across its leads and see if it runs.

  • Emac sleep problems

    Ok, I have a 2year old eMac. I upgraded the software recently. Included Java, OS X, basically a whole bunch of stuff downloaded. since that time, I have noticed that the sleep function doesn't seem to work consistently. Sometimes I can wake it no problem, sometimes screen dims and a dialog box appears saying "you need to restart your computer..." The local Apple dealer says this indicates system is crashing. I have tried reinstalling system software, problem persists. Any thoughts or suggestions?

    Hello,
    It sounds like a Kernel Panic to me read this and see if it helps,
    If you are having kernel panic look at the links below. But first lets try to solve this with out the great links below. First unplug all external object from the computer except the mouse and keyboard and try to boot up. If that does not help try to take any upgraded ram you have install and put in the original ram that came with the computer. What if I don't have the original ram that came with? Then try to remove one of the ram pieces and try to boot up and if that one does not work try the other. Now look at the links below if that has not solved your problem.
    Here is some Kernel panic info;
    Use this article,
    Isolating issues in Mac OS X
    to begin troubleshooting.
    This one,
