accidentially i recognized fbsplashd segfaulting in dmesg. tbh i don't recognize any misbehaviour of splashutils at all. everything seems to work fine. error msg: [ 16.010505] fbsplashd.stati[1329]: segfault at fffffff2 ip 08049729 sp b60f41c0 error 4 in fbsplashctl[8048000+1a5000] emerge --info: Portage 2.1.8.3 (default/linux/x86/10.0/desktop, gcc-4.4.3, glibc-2.10.1-r1, 2.6.34-gentoo i686) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-2.6.34-gentoo-i686-Intel-R-_Atom-TM-_CPU_330_@_1.60GHz-with-gentoo-2.0.1 Timestamp of tree: Wed, 16 Jun 2010 08:30:01 +0000 ccache version 2.4 [enabled] app-shells/bash: 4.0_p37 dev-lang/python: 2.6.4-r1, 3.1.2-r3 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r7 dev-util/cmake: 2.6.4-r3 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.1 sys-apps/openrc: 0.6.1-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.6-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.65 sys-devel/automake: 1.9.6-r3, 1.11.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.20.1-r1 sys-devel/gcc: 4.4.3-r2 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.6b virtual/os-headers: 2.6.34 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" ACCEPT_LICENSE="* -@EULA" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=prescott -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/share/X11/xkb" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/splash /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-march=prescott -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="assume-digests ccache distlocks fixpackages news parallel-fetch protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-logs unmerge-orphans userfetch userpriv usersandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo/" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" LINGUAS="de en" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_COMPRESS="bzip2" PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS="-9" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage/xbmc-overlay" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X a52 aac acl acpi alsa avahi bash-completion berkdb bluetooth bzip2 cairo cddb cdr cli consolekit cpudetection cracklib crypt cxx dbus dri dts dvd dvdr emboss encode exif fam fbcondecor fbsplash ffmpeg firefox flac fortran gdbm gif gpm iconv jpeg jpeg2k lcms libnotify libsamplerate lirc lm_sensors mad mikmod minimal mmx mng modules mp3 mp4 mpeg mudflap ncurses nls nptl nptlonly ogg opengl openmp pam pango pcre pdf perl png ppds pppd python qt3support readline reflection sdl session spell spl sse sse2 ssl startup-notification svg symlink sysfs syslog tcpd theora threads tiff truetype udev unicode usb v4l2 vaapi vdpau vorbis x264 x86 xcb xml xorg xulrunner xv xvid xvmc zlib" ALSA_CARDS="ali5451 als4000 atiixp atiixp-modem bt87x ca0106 cmipci emu10k1 emu10k1x ens1370 ens1371 es1938 es1968 fm801 hda-intel intel8x0 intel8x0m maestro3 trident usb-audio via82xx via82xx-modem ymfpci" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="evdev" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="de en" LIRC_DEVICES="devinput" RUBY_TARGETS="ruby18" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" XTABLES_ADDONS="quota2 psd pknock lscan length2 ipv4options ipset ipp2p iface geoip fuzzy condition tee tarpit sysrq steal rawnat logmark ipmark dhcpmac delude chaos account" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot system 2. check dmesg Actual Results: recognize segfault Expected Results: shouldn't segfault
Does this happen at every boot or was it a one time thing? Could you please also post the contents of /proc/cmdline?
(In reply to comment #1) > Does this happen at every boot or was it a one time thing? Could you please > also post the contents of /proc/cmdline? > it used to happen on every boot for a couple of weeks. right now it seems to be gone. there were a couple of updates of several packages during that time, e.g. 2.6.34-r1. cat /proc/cmdline BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-2.6.34-gentoo-r1 root=/dev/sda2 ro quiet video=uvesafb:ywrap,mtrr:3,1280x720-32 splash=silent,theme:xbmc-confluence-shiny console=tty1 fastboot loglevel=0 usbcore.autosuspend=1 acpi_enforce_resources=lax
Let's close this bug as NEEDINFO if there is no way to reproduce the problem then. If you ever run into it again, feel free to add some comments here. I will then reopen the bug and we can try to investigate this further.
