[SOLVED] Eclipse crashes XServer and freezes

After a system upgrade eclipse regulalary crashes the complete xsession. This usuallualy happens after I press ctrl + space.
When I start eclipse in a new xsession after the crash it freezes at startup. The logs do not contain any error messages that whould hint to a problem.
The strange thing is, sometimes a succeed to restart eclipse after a crashed xsesssion. In this case, eclipse runs for hours without a crash. Either the crash happens in the first minutes after starting the ide or not at all.
I have found this older bug: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/10278. My symptoms are very similar, but the described workaround doesn't fix my problem.
My system setup:
xorg-server 1.7.6-3
xfce
jdk 6u20-1
eclipse 3.5.2
Update: I found the following message in my Xorg.log. Also eclipse isn't the only application causing the crash. Sometimes even the xfce terminal emulator crashes x.

I forgot that gdm must be always the last daemon in rc.conf. Putting gmd last the list solved my problem. No more crashes!

  • New 27 iMAC keeps crashing iMovie and freezing videos on YouTube & Quicktime

    We just got a new Sept 2013 iMac three days ago, purchased refurbished from the Apple Store online. The whole point of the purchase was to be able to use iMovie to thoroughly edit videos for our YouTube channel, use garage band, lots of internet surfing and video watching etc. We spent the extra dollars to get what we thought was the most improved version of the iMac with all the souped up specs in order to avoid any hassle and headaches from a lack of performance. Here's what we have:
    3.4GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
    27-inch (diagonal) LED-backlit display with IPS technology; 2560-by-1440 resolution
    8GB (two 4GB) of 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM
    1TB hard drive (We have only used 80 GBs of it so far, so plenty of space left)
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M graphics processor with 2GB of GDDR5 memory
    720p Camera & Mic
    OS X 10.9
    We're feeling a bit duped now as this seems to have turned out to just be a big expensive piece of junk. Here are our problems:
    - Firstly, thank goodness that we had our own Logitech HD camera/mic left over from our PC because the "HD camera" built in to the iMac is worse in quality than my old blackberry curve. Grainy, lack luster, mic has sharp and distant sound, really really bad and false advertisement.
    - In the middle of using iMovie (iMac came preinstalled with the newest one, i think its 10?), it will stop responding properly or will crash and close, we wont even have any other programs running.
    - When opening Quicktime to record a new video, in the middle of a recording or while the recording window is idle, it will start glitching - flashing between live footage and a freeze frame repeatedly. The only way to stop it is to quit out Quicktime and open again and try to record quickly, or in some cases we have to completely restart the iMac, which then still randomly in the middle of a recording or idle window it will continue to flash and glitch. (You can view an example here in the last minute of one of our videos, we tried to make it work and kept the take since we were doing our outro music dance, but it totally ***** when this happens randomly during our content portion and we have to redo recording. http://youtu.be/MAJzaEShJGw?t=4m34s )
    - When watching YouTube videos, the computer takes a while to respond to a command, like if we click on a certain part of the video, it will not load it until we press the pause/play button a few times and wait. Also at the beginning of a video it will start glitching and freezing again, similar to how we explained above in the quicktime, but faster.
    If you are familiar with what could be the problem or have any advice, PLEASE HELP, we are concerned that after dropping so much money within just 3 days of use, this iMac is not performing flawlessly in the areas that we most needed and want to know if these issues are common and fixable or if its a defect that would require we send this thing back immediately. We did not get apple care and would hate to have wasted money that we really dont have on a glitchy crashing huge piece of junk.
    Want to mention a few other pros and cons unrelated to our issues, for those who may be considering buying one too:
    PROS:
    - The Magic mouse is really great, particularly because of the scrolling and zooming gestures. (Though sometimes i accidentaly swipe in a browser and go back to a previous page losing any information that was input on the page i was originally on, for example, i had to retype this whole apple imac inquiry because i swiped backwards by mistake and the whole form cleared! annoying, wish the horizontal swipe navigated between tabs instead of going through the page view history.)
    - When the imovie is not crashing, after watching some tutorials and making a few vids, its a really greatly improved program from the '09 version we used to use. I import and edit videos much faster now, and footage does not freeze or take time to load while im dragging and dropping, it is immediately responsive.
    - Love using the Talk to text function (like Siri) by pressing "fn" twice. Use this to write long emails and papers with ease. Would like to see a "Speak" read back option that allows for text to be selected and read back (like Siri on iPad)
    CONS:
    - The text is SO small everywhere and there is no option to exactly set text size across the whole system, only option given is to set a different resolution which lessens the quality of the screen with pixelation, and some programs give you the option to set custom sized text in their individual preferences.
    - Sometimes in both iMovie & Garageband, simple automated functionality will stop working, for example in iMove, when certain screens or images are dragged and dropped to the work area by the activity bar (i dont know what else to call it, the line that rolls across during playback or stays put when pressing spacebar) usually, that screen or image will click into place to align with the activity bar and will highlight the bar yellow to further communicate that alignment before you drop it, but after extended use in a session, that snapping into alignment when adding items stops working. Or sometimes you can drag and drop the ends of a title screen to adjust/trim the clip, but after extended time that too stops responding and does not let the cursor turn into that arrow that allows you to trim or extend, until after many frustrated clicks or a quit and restart.
    - When sharing/exporting a video from iMovie, i would recommend unchecking the add to theatre option because it significantly extends the amount of time needed to complete the action and i found out the theatre is just like a video stream of your movies to be shared on icloud for easy access from your other devices (similar to the icloud photostream connected to iPhoto). It takes the time to make the video readily availabe in various sizes on the Mac server for easy access, which means it takes forever for your video to be exported to where you actually want it. This is not something we need and is not worth the wait time. (For example, last ime we left the theatre box checked, the progress status of the video was estimated to be completed in 351 minutes, and then 20 minutes later that somehow inclreased to 385 minutes, then duddenly it was done, so i think this add to theatre option also cause the progress status updates to go berzerk.)

    Given the maximum RAM that model can use is 32GB, and the earlier release of that 27" mid-2013 iMac is nearly the same in most regards, you may note the listing of this slightly older iMac 27" is here in an Apple support document...
    •iMac: How to remove or install memory:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1423
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1423#1
    The images of where the RAM chips are located, behind a metal plate, should be similar in your iMac and the mid-2013 iMac 27" shown in images on that page. Note there are several models discussed. 
    You could take the computer to a certified Apple service facility (retail store, or specialist reseller) and pay them to do this, and buy the RAM from them, and you will pay for this at a retail level. If they do it, you'd want to be assured the computer did all the things you sought to cure by upgrading RAM, correctly without fault. Like run tests and stuff.... Or there's no reason to not go ahead (after confirming from Apple) that you could buy quality RAM and do this job yourself, citing the Apple page link I'd posted above.
    Contact Apple Support:
    http://www.apple.com/support/contact/
    You'd have to obtain the correct RAM (as indicated in my earlier post, citing MacTracker) of suitable quality for use in a Macintosh computer, and the recommendation for a DIY is to get the kit from 'Other World Computing' OWC online at their site. You can talk to knowledgable sales staff at OWC about what you have and what you need, and to help they may ask for the product serial number.
    This is OWC and they have the spec RAM required for your iMac 27" model; double-check info:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iMac/2012_27/DDR3L
    Since yours is an Apple Refurbished model it will have a different number series. Unlike those in a retail store, because Apple does that to tell what ones they refurbished; refurbs I bought online were like that.
    With questions during the first three months, you can get 'support' under the initial 90-day span of ownership of the new (and certified) Apple refurbs bought online; the other part of that is 'service' for 1 year. Call a nearest retail Apple Store, to set a genius appointment; or go online, and start the process of reporting your issue, while you still have some kind of warranty on the device. They can diagnose the issues you cite and tell you if you can upgrade the RAM (as you likely can) then you can buy and install the RAM yourself and probably pay less than 1/2 the retail rate, if you get some from OWC. A diagnosis is free if the Genius looks into it, but you'd need to set an appointment & lug the iMac to their store; protected from weather/shock.
    If you want to extend the complementary service to three years (less the included 90-days) and add two years of AppleCare service, that is an affordable option of about $170. For a total of three years coverage.
    {If you had a 21.5-inch iMac the RAM would require a service department visit where they use a different method to install the RAM upgrade. Those are built differently than the 27-inch iMac.}
    There is a bit of detailed important information in the Apple link on how to upgrade the iMac RAM. There is a certain amount of RAM installed already and these chips would likely be removed if you get matching sets of new RAM to upgrade the capacity. And no matter what some say, there is a reason why they can be upgraded with more. Even with Mavericks OS X 10.9.x and its 'memory compression' etc, it would gladly accept all the RAM upgrade chips it could swallow. (Behind metal screen, mid-bottom iMac 27")
    You may need to consider questions about applications that use system resources separate from those about whatever issues your iMac seems to exhibit. There may be some other cause of the video and iMovie symptoms, but more RAM won't hurt given the beast you bought can use 32GB and it has 8.
    And if it seems too much to handle, you have 14 days from date of
    purchase to take it back. Contact them ahead of then, if you do.
    Hopefully this helps.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • [Solved]Computer slow down and freeze during data transfer syncing

    Hello,
    Everytime I make a data transfer, my computer slow down, and sometimes freeze during a few seconds, work for a fraction of seconds and freeze again. I don"t understand why.
    As an example, here is a bench of files i transfered during a syncing with Grsync
    It took about 12h to sync 64Gb.
    I've read a lot of topics talking about this problem but nothing works. I tried to switch off the SWAP and setting the vm.dirty_ratio and vm.background_dirty_ratio but nothing works.
    I'm making the trasfer between two Western Digital USB 2.0 external hard drive in NTFS.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks in advance
    Last edited by Neldar (2015-03-04 15:54:29)

    It seems it was beacause one of my external hard drive was about to die. I performed the same operation with 2 Western Digital external hard drive 1To USB3 and it works perfectly.

  • Nvidia driver crashes X and freezes system

    I've installed Arch Linux last night and the nvidia driver I installed crashes X a few seconds after I start it.
    At the moment I'm using Nouveau without a problem but I'm not satisfied with the performance so I'd like to use the official nvidia driver. So far I tried the one in the package database (270), the beta one from the AUR (280) and two older ones, (250 & 260). Neither of the latter would install, I'm guessing because of old kernel version?
    So basically the problem is that whenever I start X it works for a couple of seconds (less than 10) and then my system freezes to a black screen. When I boot gdm the same thing happens, everything works including input and sound but shortly after seeing the login screen the black screen appears again.
    Here's an X error log: http://pastie.org/2248178
    So any ideas?

    Well the new driver changes the way the GPU throttles. Accoding to Nvidia's update notes, it will throttle up or down allot faster based on load. I have also noticed the DPC latency has significantly dropped on those hardware changes as well and along with the repeated interrupts for state change requests. Did you uninstall the previous drivers first?

  • Macbook Pro crashes intermittently and freeze!!!

    I bought my macbook pro 07 august
    my macbook pro crashes intermittently, sometimes a a couple of minutes or a few hours. when it crashes, everything freeze and have to press the power button in order to turn it off. tried changing RAM, but it will crash.
    Already sent to Apple service centre twice!!!! Run EVERY HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE TEST! The technician said my macbook pro is FINE!?
    what's going on?
    I'M REALLY DISAPPOINTED!!!

    Suggest you try the following
    1. Insert Leopard Install DVD
    2. Shut down
    3. Reboot holding down the "C" on your keyboard
    4. Click on "English" (assuming that's your language on the computer)
    5. Find "Dick Utility" on the drop down menu at the top of the screen
    6. Select your drive
    7. Run "Repair Disk" (permission repair can be run from your hard drive without booting to the DVD)
    8. Chances are you're crashing because of an incorrect file/folder count (miss-matched). Disk Utility (from the DVD) will repair this. Continuous freeze-ups are probably from this incorrect count. Unless it's repaired, you'll keep crashing. This repair will keep you running until you figure out the cause. I have a similar problem with sleep/wake. At least this keeps me running for a fair amount of time. I've been trying to figure out the cause (unsuccessfully, as yet).

    Since then I even tried OpenJDK instead of Oracle JDK, tried downgrading to Eclipse 4.2.1, unsintalled and reinstalled everything, tried the Eclipse portable version from their site, and the problem was still there. What should I do? What can cause this, it didn't happened 1 week ago, what's gone wrong?
    I even tried removing everything from workspaces but my source code, and all .eclipse and sh!t, I even tried running it as another user, and it still crashes on help -> welcome or every fifth minute in best case.

  • [SOLVED] GX600 Locking up and freezing

    hey guys, I am new to MSI, I admittedly have been more of an ASUS fan of laptops, but received a new GX600 last week, and I have been having issues.
    I ordered the laptop with a 1gb ram upgrade, and the seller gave me a shocking 1gb micron technologies stick, that was constantly locking up my system - so i removed it, and the system since has not shown the same symptoms (freezing, becoming unresponsive)
    My new issue is a strange one, and I have been looking around the forum, and havn't found anyone else with an issue the same as it.
    Every few hours or so, The screen will go black, and the unit will become unresponsive. It needs power to be cut for it to turn off, allowing me to turn it back on. Sometimes the unit will just restart.
    This is a fresh install and update of vista, and I had a feeling it was the ram that was the issue. Running Memtest, the screen would just stay on this:
    http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/2445/20082008zx9.jpg
    Is anyone else having similar issues with an MSI notebook? the issue is frustrating!
    E: I am running the most recent BIOS.

    Quote from: http://support.msicomputer.co.uk/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=printable&kbarticleid=29
    First of all don't panic! It can be just a protective mode* which all our notebooks have implemented. To check if it's a fault or is it just the protective mode that has been triggered please:
    - take the battery out. It's that black long part at the back end of the notebook. There will be 2 latches holding it. You need to slide them to unlock the battery and then slide the battery outwards.
    - unplug the mains from the notebook.
    - leave the unit unplugged from the mains and battery for 2 sec.
    - plug back just the battery
    - power on your notebook.
    If it was just our protective mode triggered then the unit will power and work as per normal. You can then plug the battery anytime.
    If the unit will still wont display anything then call the notebook hot line or create a ticket and we will assist.
    *the protective mode is there to prevent hardware damages to the unit when charges to it or it's settings have been made. Such mode can be triggered by a improper installation/shutdown, power cut, power voltage jump etc. In such event the unit does not power on fully to protect itself; the screen stays black although some lights on the unit will light up. Discharging the unit completely will reset the settings and any minor power management issues.
    UPDATE
    The unit just suffered another Black screen, and would only boot into this black screen, until i removed the battery for a few minutes (again :S). any ideas?

  • SOLVED: crashes and freezes

    Ever since upgrading to SL, I have suffered frequent crashes and freezes which eventually bring the whole system down, and I have to Restart. Our IT guys (thanks Paul O'Connor) came up with a solution that reliably works for me. It possibly may have nothing to do with problems other people are experiencing, but I thought I'd share it with everyone, because it has been such an effective solution for me.
    1. When first logging on, open Terminal (found in Applications>Utilities).
    2. Type: 'sudo launchctl' and enter an admin password at the prompt.
    3. Leave the terminal window open where you can get at it when needed.
    4. When an application freezes or the Mac starts to behave badly, go to the Terminal window and type:
    'stop com.apple.DirectoryServices' <return>
    then
    'start com.apple.DirectoryServices' <return>
    For me, this brings my frozen apps magically back to life.
    I hope this helps a few others,
    Julian Blow

    So what do if I do if terminal stopped working ever since I installed Snow Leopard? Also, in root mode, I am not even allowed to use the sudo command since it says both root and my main account are not in the sudoers file.
    Looking at these threads on "Using Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard", almost none are about using features in the OS. They are all about how SL screwed up their computer and apps. Apple should be deeply concerned.

  • IPad crashing and freezing after 8  ios updates

    My iPad 1 has been crashing and freezing after completing the most recent ios updates, what could be wrong?

    Can there be any person who can say that Apple treats customers as valuable persons ?
    Way how IPAD 2 users are treated, served and issues solved shows clearly how they just care of new purchases. All crashes, slowness, battery consumption, extremely bad user experience with slow and jamming UI etc... Anyway this is over now with me as I'm moving out from IPAD / IOS due this experience. Ride was a good but now its over as trust is totally destroyed by Apple.

For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

  • PPro CC14 won't stop crashing and freezing only minutes after editing commences...

    I seem to have tried everything to fix the issue but PPro CC14 won't stop crashing and freezing only minutes after editing commences. I am working on a Mac and have just updated to Mavericks as a final attempt to help solve the problem. I have tried calling Adobe but their phone support in Australia is shocking. I have resorted to posting here but haven't had any help yet. I really need to sort this issue out ASAP.

    Its it possibly related to your graphics drivers?  Seems similar to something I was experiencing that was resolved by updating my nvida cuda drivers (see thread link).  I also started running activity monitor to keep track of the memory and processor use.  That said after solving the problem by updating my drivers and switching to the CUDA acceleration, on occasion I get into ruts where it opens and freezes all the time.  It does seem helpful to try and reduce project size if possible - I normal keep a track record of sequence revisions and such, but when possible it seems that clearing out as much as possible by deleting or project managing into a new project can help things run better.

  • New to Apple TV - do they all crash and freeze like this?

    I have had mine for about 10 days. I have had it freeze (and do the diagnostics/restart) about 15 times.
    I am starting to get the hang of it. It seems to hate a bunch of my videos (encoded home movies mostly - used Handbrake and VisualHub's Apple TV setting). I can get it to crash 'on demand' on a few videos.
    What gives with the crashing? Can't it just choke on a video and refuse to play? Many times the crashing does not seem to be specific to a video though.
    I have tried the diagnostics - it reported that it was fine. I tried the system restore .. still having trouble. I am thinking if I restore it again I should stick to the first firmware (ie: not update). Might that help?
    Things are working better with the sync'ing now that I know that iTunes must be open - and I disabled the Windows 7 firewall rather than just poking the hole for the port Apple was requesting.
    Anyway - I am really disappointed. The iPhone remote is great, I love having my iTunes library in sync - but lack of 1080p and these crashes are driving my family crazy. I am probably gonna return it, but hoping for some ideas...

    do they all crash and freeze like this?
    No, they don't.
    Take a look at this document to see what formats are supported and how to properly convert them.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1532
    This next document is very specific as to the formats that will play.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP19
    iTunes has the ability to convert movies to the proper format. So does Quicktime Pro. For the record, though, I have converted a number of videos using the Mac version of Handbrake and have had no issues what-so-ever playing those files.

  • My iPad air keeps crashing and freezing when browsing the internet . Please help :(

    My husband and I updated to the new OS. Now our iPad Air's keep crashing and freezing whilst browsing the internet.  We have done a reset and swiped away pages but nothing is helping. Its very frustrating Can anyone help? Thank you Jo

    Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke.  If it has not been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, confirm that this is what you did for a "reset."  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, since you have IOS-7, read this.

  • My MacBook Pro Keeps Crashing and Freezing

    Hello,
    I have a MacBook Pro which I purchased in October of 2007. Yesterday, I started experiencing some extreme problems with it. Here is how it began:
    I was using Windows XP through Boot Camp when the screen began to flash rapidly. The same picture would remain, but the screen would flash white for a split-second and then be a normal screen. For a little while, this kept going on and I was still able to move my mouse (although I wasn't able to use my mouse to interact with any objects). Then, after a minute, my mouse was no longer able to move and the screen froze. I turned off the computer and then started it up again, but I was not able to get it to work. On the grey apple screen, the apple logo showed up along with the time dial below it. The time dial completed and the screen began to change, when suddenly the screen froze. I restarted the computer and this process repeated itself several times. I even tried entering into Windows through Boot Camp, but every time I would select Windows, the screen would go black and freeze.
    Finally, I gave up and left my computer alone. I came back an hour and turned on my computer, and it somehow managed to work. Even the Windows side worked. However, after using OS X for a while it froze. This has happened again many times. The windows partition seems to be much more finicky than the OS X partition. Windows fails to boot >50% of the time and when it does boot, it will invariably freeze or crash within an hour. However, when I run Windows through VMware Fusion, it is much more stable.
    Here are the cliff notes and other observations:
    -MBP screen started flashing and froze. Since then, my MBP is often unable to boot up. When it does boot up, it often ends up freezing (Windows or OS X side).
    -When OS X loads after having a series of Boot Up problems, an error report will be generated. This error report has been submitted several times to Apple.
    -I am currently living in Argentina and do not have any access to any sort of Apple Support or Apple Stores.
    -I do have a 3-year extended warranty on my MacBook Pro.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    My Mac just crashed again. Here is the error report:
