Version: (using KDE 4.1.3) Compiler: KUbuntu 8.10 distro OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages Hi, I've this hardware : C2D 6420, Geforce 8800GTX, 4GB of RAM. I've the 177 version of nvidia drivers installed and running(green light in jokey) When I enable Desktop effect in KDE (compositing = true in kwinrc), I get the following : Mouse pointer in the correct direction, but rest of the screen is upside down with some windows not in the screen (you can see part of it in the corner) this lead to a crash, with the details below. On the very first time I tryed (maybe with no nvidia drivers), I was able to see shadow of windows, but not the window content itself. With XRender, it seems to works in first place, but after a while, it shows some unstability. here is the kwin crash handler details : Application: KWin (kwin), signal SIGABRT (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread 0x7fe94aa7b730 (LWP 8031)] (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) [KCrash handler] #5 0x00007fe94a45cfd5 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6 #6 0x00007fe94a45eb43 in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6 #7 0x00007fe94aad1ce9 in ??

This backtrace tells us absolutely nothing. To find out how to produce useful backtraces please see: http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports Kubuntu 8.10 does not yet include the KWin self-tests of KWin 4.2. You could try changing some of the advanced settings.
Hi, I'm willing to help, but I don't know how to install debug package and make the system use them (and eventually revert back to normal package to run a normal kubuntu so my system is useable without Desktop Effect). I did not see -dbg pacakge of KDE in aptitude... if you could paste apt-get or aptitude commande line to do so, I will. Also, as it's KDE that goes mad and not a specific app, tell me how is it possible to use gdb or valgrind on this matter. >Kubuntu 8.10 does not yet include the KWin self-tests of KWin 4.2. You could >try changing some of the advanced settings. Could you be more precise ? which advanced settings ? where ? (I've taken a look inside KDE setting, advanced tab, but didn't found anything relevant.) Thanks for your time. Thomas
In kubuntu you have to install the kdebase-workspace-dbg package. You find the advanced settings of KWin Compositing via kickoff->systemsettings->desktop->desktop effects->general tab -> advanced settings button.
I'm sorry, I won't give it a try... it seems too risky for me. I need my pc to work, and instruction to help you are far too tiny to be safe. 3D effects are really an extra I can spare.
So there is nothing we can do.
Humm... how to say that : Yes, by giving detailed instruction on how to go on debug, collect data, revert back to normal mode. I'm willing to help, but not if it means a possible loss of my work station. (Installing 680MB of software is a bit scary for my pc I work with every day)
(In reply to comment #6) > Humm... how to say that : > Yes, by giving detailed instruction on how to go on debug, collect data, revert > back to normal mode. with comment #1 and #3 everything is said. I'm sorry I can't provide a more detailed instruction. As said you only need to install kdebase-workspace-dbg and the depending packages. Then do the steps to produce the crash and we will have a nice backtrace with debugging symbols.
I'm sorry but I don't see instruction to revert back to non-debug package... without this, I won't do anything.
(In reply to comment #8) > I'm sorry but I don't see instruction to revert back to non-debug package... > without this, I won't do anything. > Just uninstall the packages ;-)
great, I'll give it a try this weekend. Thanks.
Hi, I've retryed Desktop effect. At first it seems to works. I reboot and on after login, same issues : screen upside down, doesn't fit on the screen... I've tryed to make it crash without success. I did : CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE to restart X server. same result after login, but alt tab works, but when I release ALT key, I can't see the app i've selected. I was able to see a divx running (that I launch without willing to) while having ALT pressed. I've done CTRL+ALT+F1 then, CTRL+ALT+F7 and then it crashes with this stack : Application: KWin (kwin), signal SIGABRT [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread 0x7fe699bc7730 (LWP 7552)] [KCrash handler] #5 0x00007fe6995a8fd5 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6 #6 0x00007fe6995aab43 in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6 #7 0x00007fe6995e9fa8 in __libc_message () from /lib/libc.so.6 #8 0x00007fe6995ef938 in malloc_printerr () from /lib/libc.so.6 #9 0x00007fe6995f1f86 in free () from /lib/libc.so.6 #10 0x00007fe692a66000 in ??

Regards, Thomas.
Please disable the blur effect and try again. Btw the crash actually happens in the driver, so perhaps the new 180 driver helps.
Ok, I'll try again. How can I update 180 drivers before it is generally available ? (which url should I add in /etc/apt/sources.list) Thanks, Thomas.
(In reply to comment #13) > Ok, I'll try again. > > How can I update 180 drivers before it is generally available ? (which url > should I add in /etc/apt/sources.list) Sorry I have no idea. I'm still using the 177 driver and I won't update the driver. I wait till it's integrated into the distribution and that will be in case of ubuntu 9.04. But I think there was envy which can be used to install new drivers in ubuntu?
