[Bug 1040271] Re: showDesktop encountered a problem after right-clicking on icon

 

> sure, but i'm a little uncertain about what the bug-description should mention?
First, I think that this old Xinerama extension should be replaced by XRandr (but it's not really the problem here ;) ).
The problem here is that there is a crash when XRRGetScreenInfo is used and Xinerama is enabled. I *think* it shouldn't have any crash here (and I guess XRRGetScreenInfo should return 'NULL').

But now, it's hard to know if this bug is due to your video drivers, to
XRandr or if it's normal to have a crash there (but it's the first bug
report about that and this code has been added more than 2 years ago
(2009-12-19)).

*@Ubuntu-X*: What do you think about that? :)

*@rednammoc*: if there is no answer, it can be interesting to report
this bug directly to FGLRX devs and XRandr devs (
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=xorg&component=Server%2FExt%2FRandR&version=7.6%20%282010.12%29
).

Maybe I'm wrong (@fabounet: can you confirm that?) but I'm sure that
they will be able to help us even if it's not due to one of these 3
projects ;)
