Description Simon Watson 2003-06-12 10:30:12 UTC
Basically, when mplayer is loaded, metacity segfaults with the following error:

Window manager warning: Window 0x2200011 (MPlayer) sets an MWM hint indicating i  
t isn't resizable, but sets min size 0 x 0 and max size 360 x 80; this doesn't m  
ake much sense.

Comment 1 Simon Watson 2003-06-12 10:31:41 UTC
This happens with various version of metacity including :
2.4.55 and 2.4.34

I have tried various compile options such as:

CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -Os -mfpmath=sse  -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"

It has definately worked before, so I am unsure as to what has gone wrong
Comment 2 Seemant Kulleen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-06-12 14:26:47 UTC
first thing I would do is changing -march=pentium4 to -march=pentium3 -- the pentium4 option alwayt always causes broken code.
Comment 3 Simon Watson 2003-06-12 23:22:42 UTC
Ok, Have tried recompiling with pentium3... same problem. I was wondering if this could have been caused by the recent gtk+-2.2.2 upgrade, as I can't recall it ever happening till recently, and this was upgraded recently.
Comment 4 Simon Watson 2003-06-12 23:33:35 UTC
Ok- Have downgraded to: gtk+-2.2.1-r1 And the segfaulting is gone.
Comment 5 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-06-13 03:37:07 UTC
most likely same problems as dup, look there for solutions (updating to gtk+-2.2.2-r1 should help)
