Hello Miguel, I was wrong with what I wrote. For any reason xine was started with xshm and this worked always. I will try now all versions again with xv and write you the results later. Sorry about that. Stefan ---------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht ---------- Subject: Re: [xine-user] xine and Blue Screen Date: Freitag, 3. September 2004 12:53 From: Stefan Brandner <ste...@ut...> To: Miguel Freitas <mfr...@gm...> Cc: xin...@li..., Jurek Bartuszek <ko...@ko...> Hello Miguel, today I wanted to summarize my results with the different versions but before I started I updated XFree86 with the new files from the Suse hompage. XFree86 4.3.99.902-43.28-patch XFree86-server 4.3.99.902-43.28-patch This update fixed all my problems with the blue screen. Now the newest version xine-lib-1-rc5 and xine-ui-0.99.2 are running without a problem. So all who are using SuSE 9.1 I recommend to update there XFree packages. I also combiled kaffeine but it hangs as soon as I try to play a file. Maybe the reason for this is that I updated to kde 3.3.0 already. Anyway thanks for all your help.

Hi Stefan, thanks for the investigation! it is still possible this frontend difference to be due the xfree86 bug. each frontend has it own memory requirement for storing pixmaps, so it might not work with some version but work with the other. please try the suggested workaround with the rc5 + 0.99.2 combination, adding Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps" to the device section of the XF86Config file. regards, miguel On Sat, 4 Sep 2004 10:52:57 +0200, Stefan Brandner <ste...@ut...> wrote: > Hello Miguel, > > I did some further trials and found out that if I also get the blue screen > when I use xine-lib-rc4 with xine-ui-0.99.2. > If I use xine-ui-99.1 with xine-lib-1-rc5 ther is no blue screen the > still menue works but the program hangs when the film has started. > > So the root cause seems to be xine-ui-0.99.2 and not the lib. > > Regards > Stefan > > Am Freitag, 3.

This fix appears to fix the problem completely for me as well. Configuration: SuSE 9.1 with XFree86-4.3.99.902-43.25, i815 video with i810 driver. xine-lib-1-rc5 xine-ui-0.99.2 Everything works again! Even with Mozilla and Thunderbird both running. -- David |

Hello Miguel, finaly the results of my investigations starting a dvd with xine -Vxv dvd:// All programs are newly compiled before any trial lib ui xine-lib-1-rc2 xine-ui-0.9.22 working fine xine-lib-1-rc3b xine-ui-0.9.22 film plays fine, but still menue are not visible from the beginning, anyway it is alway possible to select items! when waiting correct menue shows up after about 1min xine-lib-1-rc3b xine-ui-0.9.23 same as above xine-lib-1-rc4 xine-ui-0.9.23 menue didn't show up at first run but from second start onwards ok, film plays fine xine-lib-1-rc4 xine-ui-0-99.1 same as previous trial xine-lib-1-rc4 kaffeine-0.4.3b does work fine xine-lib-1-rc5 xine-ui-0.99.2 blue screen, sound works xine-lib-1-rc5 kaffeine-0.4.3b hangs when selecting file (film) So the results are similar to what Peetah is reporting despite that kaffeine doesn't work with xine-lib-1-rc5 at all.

Hello Miguel, I did some further trials and found out that if I also get the blue screen when I use xine-lib-rc4 with xine-ui-0.99.2. If I use xine-ui-99.1 with xine-lib-1-rc5 ther is no blue screen the still menue works but the program hangs when the film has started. So the root cause seems to be xine-ui-0.99.2 and not the lib.

Hello Miguel, tried that and the blue screen disappeared. I still have a problem with rc5 because it hangs when playing any film. No matter if I use a dvd or any other mpeg or avi file. When I start xine now no blue screen shows up. I can change settings in the configuration and all the menu do work. As soon as I load a mpeg or avi file xine hangs. When using a dvd the still menu shows up and I can select e.g. the language but when I start the film xine hangs. When such crash happen it doesn't react to any key press. I have to use kill -9 to get rid of it. I now use 0.99.2 with rc4 which works with all files I had problems before and there is no blue screen which I previously also had in this combination. Do you have some suggestion what I should try to analyse the rc5 hangs? Regards Stefan Am Samstag, 4.

When the audio driver is opened, xine hangs. To check that, could you run "xine -Anull"? Michael -- panic("floppy: Port bolixed."); 2.2.16 /usr/src/linux/include/asm-sparc/floppy.h |

Hello Michael, tried that but it is not the cause for the problem. I tried several avi files, one does work another one crashes xine. I also tried a mpeg file which played for around 14s then suddenly everything stopped. With a DVD I can go through all the menues like scene selections. As soon as I start the film xine crashes. If I start xine with xshm all this files do work. So it seems it is another xfree86 bug. By the way. All this problems do not show up with rc4. Regards Stefan Am Mittwoch, 8.

This actually sounds much like a problem I also found a couple of days ago. I have two boxes with the exact same xorg version (FC2) and use xine cvs on both boxes (always update at the same time). Still those boxes react different on some avi's.When I play large (I mean in resolution) avi's using xv, box1 will play it (although not very well) while xine on box2 will segfault immediately at start. I'm not sure whether the size of the movie is the cause, but I expect it as I've never seen the problem before and never played such large size avi's before. Both boxes play the files using xshm. The avi's I'm trying can be found here : http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/content_provider/film/ContentShowcase.aspx Actually all of them make xine segfault on box2. The only difference I think is the graphics card itself or the driver (the cards I use are a Matrox G550 on box 1 and a G400 on box2, both using mga driver). Regards, Marcel |

I updated to xorg-X11R6.8.1 by using the rpm files from the SuSE webserver. ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/X/XFree86/Xorg/Xorg-X11R6.8.1-untested/ After that I compiled xine-lib-1-rc6a and what a wonder everything worked. The bug of the SuSE XFree86 4.3.99 version seems to be fixed with xorg. It even works when I remove the Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps" from the XF86config file. Anyway, thank you very much to all who helped me with this problem. Stefan Am Mittwoch, 29.
