[Bug 402260] Re: [Needs SRU] segfault when running Xdmx

 

** Description changed:

  I get a segmentation fault when i run xdmx.
  
  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/f66315f80
  ^^output of Xdmx :2 -display :1, inside xfce4-terminal
  
  Xdmx :2 -noglxproxy -norender -nomulticursor -input dummy
  -nooffscreenopt -nosubdivprims -noxkb -display :1 +xinerama
  
  also fails in the same way.
  
  ProblemType: Bug
  Architecture: i386
  DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04
  Package: xdmx 2:1.6.0-0ubuntu14
  ProcEnviron:
   LANG=en_US.UTF-8
   SHELL=/bin/bash
  SourcePackage: xorg-server
  Uname: Linux 2.6.28-13-generic i686
  
  SRU-information:
- This bug makes the xdmx package completely unusable on karmic. Lucid has a newer upstream release of xserver-xorg included, which includes various patches to xdmx. To make xdmx work on karmic at least 4 patches to xdmx are needed, these are cherrypicked from upstream git. The patches only modify files in hw/dmx/, so there should be no impact on other parts of xserver-xorg.

  TEST CASE:
  - install xdmx and Xephyr: aptitude install xserver-xephyr xdmx
  - start Xephyr on display 1:  Xephyr :1
  - start xdmx on display 2, taking Xephyr on 1 as its only display: Xdmx :2 -display :1
  - xdmx will crash on karmic with a segfault right away.
