Hi all,
has anyone got 3.1rc2 (or newer) to work on Solaris 8? I didn't see any
reports of problems similar to mine, so I'm hesitating to file bug reports
right now (I might have screwed up something here) -- perhaps someone can
enlighten me...
Using qt-copy, kdelibs, kdebase (as of last weekend) from anoncvs, the
following happens:
* Konqueror crashes when clicking somehere in the blue background of the
"about:" page. This doesn't seem to happen when deselect "Actions disabled"
in Kicker's setup (I'm not sure if this really related, it's just the
symptom...).
* Konqueror crashes during rendering http://www.trolltech.com/
Platform: Solaris 8/x86
XFree86 4.0.2 (just the server)
FreeType 2.1.2
Compiler: a) gcc-3.2, binutils-2.12, gdb-5.2.1
b) gcc-2.95.2 (no binutils, using Sun's assembler & linker)
each compiled after cvs-clean with NO references in
$PATH/$QTDIR/$KDEDIR to previous installations
A backtrace of such a crash can be found on can be found on
http://www.genetik.uni-bielefeld.de/kde/konq-rc2-trace.txt (compiled using
variant (b), since (a) results in "??" for most of the function/method
names...) The trace suggests to me that the problem might be in Qt's font
handling code, but this just a first guess...
* KDE hangs during login: ksplash shows "Initializing peripherals" and finally
exits leaving a grey desktop. On the console (and /var/adm/messages I see
messages like
Nov 11 07:39:28 macleod ypbind[28459]: [ID 379826 daemon.error] service not \
installed, use /usr/sbin/ypinit -c
Nov 11 07:39:33 macleod ypbind[28460]: [ID 379826 daemon.error] service not \
installed, use /usr/sbin/ypinit -c
Nov 11 07:39:39 macleod ypbind[28461]: [ID 379826 daemon.error] service not \
installed, use /usr/sbin/ypinit -c [...]
being displayed every 5 seconds. I admit this looks more like an OS problem,
but I have never seen such behaviour in earlier KDE releases before
(we're currently running 2.2.2 in production and I've successfully run 3.0.2
and 3.1beta1, the latter being _rock_solid_ on Solaris/SPARC so far.)
Debugging is a bit difficult since all processes show up as kdeinit's
on Solaris...
I've dropped the ".xsession-errors" on
http://www.genetik.uni-bielefeld.de/kde/xsession-hanging.txt
in case someone want's to have look...
I thought the 5s interval might have something to do with kded's checking
my system configuration, so I installed the following as
$KDEDIR/share/config/kdedrc:
[General]
PollInterval=500
NFSPollInterval=5000
HostnamePollInterval=5000
CheckSycoca=false
CheckUpdates=false
CheckHostname=false
But unfortunately this didn't help either. I also tried cleaning up all
/tmp/kde*, /tmp/ksocket*, ~/.mcop*, ~/.kde etc. files and directories
without success...
Platform: Solaris 8/SPARC (Ultra 5 Workstations, SunRay 1 Terminals)
Sun's XServer
FreeType 2.1.2
using NIS for passwd/group, dns/files for hosts,
NFS mounted home and software partitions
Compiler: gcc-3.2, no binutils
Any suggestions/debugging tips welcome. Thanks for listening,
Torsten
