I get this bug running amd64 with nvidia providing the compositing support (no USE="aiglx" for xorg-server). I still get the bug, using the most recent yakuake on kde 3.5.5

I can reproduce with a very bussy but only one tab of yakuake. For example, let's emerge glibc (or some big program) in yakuake. If you click on other icon (for example the k menu) yakuake will dissapear with the animation set for it, and there is a high chance for X to be restarted. And there is more, my computer completely freezes when having X started (with beryl activated) for much time without doing anything (my comp *always* hangs when I go to college in morning, when I see it at night (or the next day) it is completely hung. And even more, my comp hangs when I change from a tty (for example ctrl+alt+F1 wich works) to a X session (ctrl+alt+F7). I have an amd64 gentoo system with nvidia beta driver (no aiglx)
Could somebody test this workaround from beryl bugzilla? ******************************************************** Hi! Sorry for the test ;) I've just figured out which function in yakuake source causes the crash... It's hide() in function 'void MainWindow?::slotDecreaseHeight()' in main_window.cpp file... I don't know how to fix it yet, but I've got a simple workaround of the problem: Simply comment out hide() and decrease height a little bit more (just for yakuake not to be visible on the screen at all): if (background_policy) move(x(), -1); - hide(); + //hide(); + mask_height=-25; } updateWindowMask(); It works for me and I like it even more now, because hiding/showing of yakuake is done without Close/Create Effect :))) Hope I could help somebody :P ************************************************

Sorry about the delay in replying - real life is real busy... I cannot reproduce this here but I just use a normal KDE 3.5 session in a normal X server using the nVidia binary driver, or the open source ATI/nVidia driver on amd64 systems. Still not gotten around to testing the opengl server stuff - please let me know if there is something you would like me to do to correct this - it looks like it is an X server bug to me though.
FOr me tish error also didn't reproduce when using normal X server session it onlu shows up when running beryl or set up transparency using compiz in KDE. I also found note on YaKuake - Home Page taht suggest it is a Yakuake bug and it will be repaired on next release…

(In reply to comment #5) > I don't know how to fix it yet, but I've got a simple workaround of the > problem: > Simply comment out hide() and decrease height a little bit more (just for > yakuake not to be visible on the screen at all): That might work around the bug, but it changes yakuake behaviour: yakuake will now not cede keyboard focus when hidden. Typing in a hidden yakuake without realizing it is really annoying. > It works for me and I like it even more now, because hiding/showing of yakuake > is done without Close/Create Effect :))) To achieve that without breaking yakuake's dropping focus: --- yakuake-2.7.5-original/yakuake/src/main_window.cpp 2007-01-15 18:42:09.000000000 +0100 +++ yakuake-2.7.5/yakuake/src/main_window.cpp 2007-01-17 03:24:51.000000000 +0100 @@ -28,7 +28,7 @@ MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget * parent, const char * name) : DCOPObject("DCOPInterface"), - KMainWindow(parent, name, Qt::WStyle_Customize | Qt::WStyle_NoBorder), + KMainWindow(parent, name, Qt::WStyle_Customize | Qt::WStyle_NoBorder | Qt::WX11BypassWM), step(0) { isShuttingDown = false; That doesn't fix the crash though ...
(In reply to comment #10) Playing around with beryl-settings I realized the animation fix above does only prevent beryl from using "animations" and not "fading windows". Make it - KMainWindow(parent, name, Qt::WStyle_Customize | Qt::WStyle_NoBorder), + KMainWindow(parent, name, Qt::WStyle_Customize | Qt::WStyle_Splash), if you don't want your yakuake fading in and out (I don't). Anyways ... trying to get back to topic: Could this be a problem in the konsole kpart? There is no output-related code in yakuake.
This bug is not related to beryl. Looking at the systems I use, it did never happen on a Xorg 7.2 system (Gentoo on Sis). But it happened on two other systems having older Xorg running (7.1, Gentoo on NVidia and openSuSE on ATI). All are using compositing in Xorg (so it may be compositing-related, not beryl-related). In addition it tends to happen more often on the systems having "Backing-store" enabled but I cannot exactly reproduce it. All these systems were not running beryl when I tested yakuake. And it sometimes happened with Yakuake just running and sitting still and hidden.
I used to have this bug with normal composite. (xcompmgr & kompmgr. ahh, back in the good old days...:) Can't remember if I reported it though.

I have the same problem with yakuake 2.7.5, Xorg 7.2 and Compiz-Fusion.
In http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136496 said that it's not a yakuake bug Seems a xorg bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10617
I am not sure, if you want to know this, when I was searching for compiz-fusion related bugs, I also stumbled across this one. I am using: x11-base/xorg-server-1.4.0.90-r3 (my hardware uses the intel driver) kde-misc/yakuake-2.8 and the compiz-fusion overlay in Bug 216621 The yakuake issue does not occur in kde, kde4, nor on the xfce4 desktop environment.
Can anyone reproduce this with the latest yakuake (2.9.4) and compiz (0.7.8)?
Due to 3 months inactivity closing as worsforme, cause i cant reproduce it (btw i fixed my compiz+kde-4.2 jorge ;D).
