• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description mako 2009-10-27 18:54:24 UTC]

After the gnome update to version 2.26.3 my desktop crashes if I start mplayer, ding, cinelerra or vncviewer. X starts new and I get the gdm-login-screen. In my /var/log/syslog appears only the line: 

WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0




 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Login
2.Start mplayer, ding, cinelerra or vncviewer


Actual Results:  
X crashes

Created attachment 208451 [details]
This is my Xorg.0.log and a small python script which uses gtk

Probably an nvidia-specific bug (you have glx errors in your log, looks suspicious to me).

Thanks
