[Bug 1015292] Re: Snowshoe fails with QT5 with a segmentation fault while starting the application

 

The error from Qt get's generated once xcb detects the error at the
connector, which Qt doesn't handle by default:

(gdb) p xcb_xfixes_id
$37 = {name = 0xb2433b28 "XFIXES", global_id = 2}
(gdb) n
Breakpoint 3, xcb_get_extension_data (c=0x1fc9b0, ext=0xb243c02c) at ../../src/xcb_ext.c:85
85	../../src/xcb_ext.c: No such file or directory.
(gdb) n
87	in ../../src/xcb_ext.c
(gdb) p c->has_error
$39 = 1

....

Qt:

void QXcbConnection::initializeXFixes()
{
    xcb_generic_error_t *error = 0;
    const xcb_query_extension_reply_t *reply = xcb_get_extension_data(m_connection, &xcb_xfixes_id);
    xfixes_first_event = reply->first_event;
...

As this is causing the X11 server to blow as well, I believe this is
probably related with an issue on the xrandr side, as it's the first
extension Qt loads before moving on with the application.

Title:
  Snowshoe fails with QT5 with a segmentation fault while starting the
  application

Status in Ubuntu OMAP4 graphics addons:
  New
Status in “pvr-omap4” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  While testing Qt 5 support on Ubuntu, and validating the support for
  OpenGL ES2.0 with Pandaboard, I couldn't start Snowshoe (Qt 5 - webkit
  based browser) as it gives a segmentation fault and also breaks the
  X11 server (with the pvr driver).

  After a quick check with Snowball (Mali 400), it worked properly and
  as expected, so this could probably be related with the current SGX
  driver available for Pandaboard.

  How to reproduce the issue:
  1) Enable https://launchpad.net/~canonical-qt5-edgers/+archive/qt5-daily
  2) Install 'snowshoe-mobile' package
  3) Run snowshoe: $ PATH=/opt/qt5/bin:$PATH; snowshoe

  This is with Ubuntu 12.04 with pvr-omap4 1.7.10.0.1.21-0ubuntu1 (from
  archive) and also 1.7.15.0.1.57-1 from TI's PPA.
