[SOLVED] Gnome 3.8 apps crash with X Window System Error

So far this applications are affected:
- gnome-terminal (when clicking on menu)
- gnome-control-center (when choosing Users or Date & Time and some other tiles, choosing account in GOA)
- epiphany (when clicking on new tab button)
They crash with following error in console:
(gnome-control-center:12717): Gdk-ERROR **: The program 'gnome-control-center' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadImplementation (server does not implement operation)'.
(Details: serial 3583 error_code 17 request_code 148 minor_code 46)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment
variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
dmesg show only this line:
[14505.289265] traps: gnome-control-c[12717] trap int3 ip:7fc494139ead sp:7fff3986e5e0 error:0

My graphic card (iI guess this has something to do with xorg):
AMD Mobility Radeon HD 4550 (using catalyst legacy driver 13.1 with Xorg 1.12)
Last edited by szorti (2013-04-24 08:40:26)

I did a little test:
- upgraded to xorg 1.14
- switched from catalyst to xf86-video-ati drive
Most of the errors dissappeared (GOA still crashes).
But now i can only see message tray using keyboard shortcut (super + m). I read that I need to move my mouse fast to the botton edge of my screen - does not work - instead it show up randomly when i moved mouse near the bottom edge.
I don't want to use the open source drivers (slow and laggy with multi monitor setup I'm using). I hope gnome devs will fix this bugs soon.
SOLUTION (to still use catalyst):
I found out that this is an Xorg 1.12 bug.
Bug: http://lists.debian.org/debian-x/2012/12/msg00133.html
To solve this use patch from this bugreport to compile xorg 1.12
I used this aur packages:
1. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xf86 … evdev1.12/
2. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xorg-server1.12/ - I have edited PKGBUILD to include patch from bug report above

  • Fix for Music app crash with iTunes Match "on"

    Sometimes if you try to use iTunes match for the first time on 3G(or any other cellular connection) it crashes Music app permanently. It can occur if you try to run Music app on the go with bad 3G connectivity so some data is corrupted or configured incorrectly. I had this twice, but found this "easy" fix without a need of PC/Mac computer & iTunes.
    How to fix music app crash with itunes match "on".
    Step by step on the iPad:
    - delete all music on your device:
    Go to settings->usage->view list of all apps->swipe music icon ->choose delete
    - set itunes match off
    - run music app
    - give it a while till it shows "no music" info and only shop button. It needs to reload all settings and clear all data. Wait till no loading circle.
    - go to settings app again
    - music settings - itunes match on but "show all your music" off !
    -  open music app
    - wait till all your music lists covers download. It will take a while. Scroll down to load them all if you want. Wait till no loading circle.
    - go to settings app again
    - music settings - show all your music on
    - go to music app
    - wait till it download list of all your music
    Done
    Maybe you can fix this with lesser number of steps but this way I'm sure it works.

  • I have Windows 8.1 installed on my Macbook Pro Retina (Late 2013) and it keeps on crashing with a WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR BSOD error

    I have Windows 8.1 installed on my Macbook Pro Retina (Late 2013) and it keeps on crashing with a WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR BSOD error. Is this an issue with the bootcamp driver not compatible with Windows 8.1? or is there something I can do to fix this.
    I also keep getting WHEA-Logger Event-ID 19 warning events in the Windows Event Logs with the following details.
    A corrected hardware error has occurred.
    Reported by component: Processor Core
    Error Source: Corrected Machine Check
    Error Type: Cache Hierarchy Error
    Processor APIC ID: 3
    The details view of this entry contains further information.

    likely win8.1 dont have official bootcamp support yet
    1/3 of my logins into win8.1 result in a fatal bluescreen
    was the same deal when I installed win8 before official support
    and when the drivers with official support was released the issue went away

  • Best practices for apps integration with third party systems ?

    Hi all
    I would like to know if there is any document from oracle or from your own regarding best practices for apps integration with third party systems.
    For example, in particular, let's say we need customization in a given module(ex:payables) need to provide data to a third party system, consider following:
    outbound interface:
    1)should third party system should be given with direct access to oracle database to access a particular payments data information table/view to look for data ?
    2) should oracle create a file to third party system, so that it can read and do what it need to do?
    inbound:
    1) should third party should directly login and insert data into tables which holds response data?
    2) again, should third party create file and oralce apps will pick up for further processing?
    again, there could be lot of company specific scenarios like it has to be real time or not... etc...
    How does companies make sure third party systems are not directly dipping into other systems (oracle apps/others), so that it will follow certain integration best practices.
    how does enterprise architectute will play a role in this? can we apply SOA standards? should use request/reply using Tibco etc?
    Many oracle apps implementations customizations are more or less directly interacting with third party systems by including code to login into respective third party systems and vice versa.
    Let me your know if you have done differently and that would help oracle apps community.
    thanks
    rrb.

    you want to send idoc to third party system (NONSAP).
    what kind of system is it? can it handle http requests
    or
    can it handle webservice?
    which version of R/3 you are using?
    what is the mechanism the receiving system has, to receive data?
    Regards

  • I ran an iTunes update.  It failed with the message  System Error.  The program can't start because MSVCR80.DLL is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.   I tried reinstalling but get the same message.

    I ran an iTunes update.  It failed with the message  "System Error.  The program can't start because MSVCR80.DLL is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."   I tried reinstalling but get the same message.  I looked in my Recycle Bin for that file name but there is none there.  Is this a new file that iTunes wants?

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • The program 'xchat' received an X Window System error. [SOLVED]

    amg ~ $ xchat
    The program 'xchat' received an X Window System error.
    This probably reflects a bug in the program.
    The error was 'BadImplementation (server does not implement operation)'.

  • Photogene App crashes with some photos with iOS 8 update, not others when in edit

    SInce the iOS 8 update some when I select a photograph or when scrolling pictures in an Album, the App crashes.  This never happened before this new upgrade.  I've used it for months.  Any help appreciate.  With certain pictures, no problem.  I make personal cards for printing and this app has been great until now.  I go into one album, scroll, select a photograph p, work in it, no proble.  I move to another Album, and whil scrolling it crashes, repeatedly..  This app replaced the iPhoto App as that one was multiplying pictures like rabbits and alleged fixes and visits to the Apple Store did not solve the problem.  The Appke Store personnell were great but no one could fix that issue.  I deleted it.  Many, many others everywhere had that similar problem.  Any help with this crashing problem is appreciated. 

    Thank you, Ralph,  for your reply.  I'm a practical person so I tried trial and error.  It was recents ans larger Albums that the Photogene crashed.  I could make a card from my smaller Albums.  So I transferred a few photos from the ones that crashed to the successful Album(s).  I could edit, put Text, save, export to my library, e-mail and post on FaceBoo.  That worked for me.  A round about way, but it works.  Again, thanks.

  • All CS2 apps crash with "Read Only Memory Exception" error.

    Machine Specs.
    Apple G5 1.8ghz DP
    OS X 10.4.10
    It doesn't matter which one I open, they all crash with the same error. This started when a user placed a support ticket for their mac not starting up. I wasn't able to save the user so I created a new user, and then moved their desktop files over to the new user. However the only files I moved were those on the desktop, and their Notes data directory.
    Thinking my job done I marked the tickets closed and walked away.
    I got a call later when the user came into the office and the issue was that Indesign CS2 was crashing with a "Read Only Memory Exception" error. I first deleted the Preferences on the machine. That didn't work.
    So I created a new user to see if it was the user causing the errors. I received the same error when opening Indesign CS2 from the brand new user account. I also tested all other CS2 programs and got the same errors.
    Next I tried deleting the CS2 programs and re-installing them. No luck, same error, even with a new user. I have not re-installed any plug-ins with the new App installs yet.
    Removed all fonts, and ran a font cache cleaner. Same error.
    Finally, the last thing I've tried is to manually remove every adobe application on the machine. Acrobat 5/6/7, CS1, CS2...etc. I have also removed any Adobe files/folders in the //library/, and /$home/Library/.
    Yet I still get the same error. Short of a complete wipe I'm not sure where to proceed next. I'm really confused and hoping someone can give me some clues.

    Thanks to a comcast permissions error any new files I upload to my comcast.net pages requires the administrator username/password to even see the file to download it. Simply giving out the URL for new files results in page not found errors.
    So for the forseeable future I don't see any way to upload this file correctly. Its there on my webspace all 63megs of it. If I login through the FTP account I can upload and download to my hearts content but since anonymous access is disabled I'm not giving out my administrator login info.
    I've got a gig of space, using 22mb of it, and can't upload any more files because no-one has permissions to access them.
    I spent a half hour on the phone with comcast trying to figure this out. However I don't know whats going on with their end. I have a trouble ticket open for a level 3 tech, we'll see whats going on.
    So the Font Scrubber will remain unavailable for the time being unless someone wants to give me guest upload access to a FTP account. I'm not opening a fileshare account with anyone, don't like'm.

  • Apps crashing with high frequency.

    I bought my self an iPad for christmas and I love it. What I don't like is that the os is so buggy. I have constant problems with programs (apps) crashing on a fairly regular basis. I know what your thinking "maybe it's just a couple of poorly made apps that this poor shlub downloaded from the app store". Truth is though that this seems to be endemic throughout all of the apps including the native ones that come on the machine. Now I know that I am spoiled with Apple's "it just works" environment but this seems buggier then anything I had ever experienced all those years suffering with windows. If anyone knows what is going on and has some advice, or would just like to lament with me over this issue please respond to this post. To help assuage all of those that are going to post the usual 1 2 3 walk trough, I have preformed all of the prescribed first step fixes, and because of the nature of the issue I believe the problem to be in the foundation of the OS or perhaps hardware limitations. It is my great hope that the newest iteration of the OS fixes, or at least greatly limits the frequency of these app crashes.

    It's not the OS that is bug but the apps. Many developers are very sloppy coders which leads to their apps crashing.
    I would restore as a new iPad with no third party apps and see how it goes. If it runs fine, start adding your apps back one at a time until you start experiencing crashes. Get rid of the app that causes the crashes and see how things go at that point.
