Description Hongjiu Zhang 2009-08-16 02:36:03 UTC

After I started /etc/init.d/xdm and entered my username and password in kdm, it crashed. 

/var/log/everything/current says:

grsec: denied resource overstep by requesting 4096 for RLIMIT_CORE against limit 0.

Full information will be pasted here in less than 3 hours.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 5 Hongjiu Zhang 2009-08-16 02:57:25 UTC

Maybe I should apologise for submit this bug to hardened. Since I read some threads about this problem, PaX team has already repeated that grsec is just logging these and the problem is about how the program crashed.

Comment 6 Hongjiu Zhang 2009-08-16 12:26:01 UTC

I am really sorry to disturb you. I promise that the next time I should check more.

It results from both my failure in emerging kdebase-startkde and the intel video card driver' error about kdm freezing. And I incorrectly judged this as a X crashing error.
