#37 X I/O error crashes X
I have been trying to play with Yoshimi. After awhile and with no discernible repetitive reason it causes a I/O error for X and crashes X causing be to go back to my login. I cannot find more info in either xlog or using journalctl. However I do have the most recent core dump.
I tried running Yoshimi -Aa just to test with alsa and also had a crash. Here is the coredump.
Please give more information about your setup. In particular:
Yoshimi version - self build or fetched from distribution?
Distribution version
Window manager
Machine architecture
How long before the crash? Minutes? Hours?
What happens if you run it from the command line with no GUI?
I am using Yoshimi 2.1.0 build from archlinux package repo.
I keep my archlinux up to date and is rolling release.
I am using XFCE as my window manager
I'm am running 64 bit with 5.14.7 as my linux kernel.
It varies in time between as fast as 2 minutes and as long as 15 minutes.
I don't know about in nogui mode because it is while I am using the different synth engines and learning how the program works. It seems to be linked to how many parameters I change (though crashes in different parts of the gui from the main window to any of the synth engines). When I changed many things quickly it seemed to crash sooner in time.
Let me more what else would be helpful.
Can you run
gdb yoshimi COREFILEon your core file, then run the commandbt, and post the output?It was X which dumped core, not Yoshimi. I thought Yoshimi never did anything at all directly to an X server (that's crazy!) -- so my first guess is that arch's X or FLTK package has a problem and Yoshimi is just the one finding it.
OP, there aren't many options but can you try messing around with something else like Rakarrack? What version of FLTK is installed? Are you able to try with older versions of that and (separately) another version of Yoshimi?
Here is the output requested:

Bugs:
#37Apparently the version of yoshimi isn't making core dumps. When I use
coredump_ctl it lists yoshimi as faulting but no coredump available. It was
at the same time as the Xorg.

#37That's unexpected and interesting. Of course Yoshimi has nothing to do with GTK but XFCE does. In your coredumps you can see the only mentions of Yoshimi are in what look exactly like window titles including Firefox viewing the wiki. I also see some GL shader source which gives me an idea-- are you using XFCE's desktop compositor? If yes, does it help to switch it off?
It's been suggested to me that this might in fact be some kind of XFCE issue, and that it would be worth trying a different window manager to see if the same problem occurs.
I usually have Openbox running (it's very lightweight) but there also things like KWin, Fluxbox. IceWM.
You should be able to grab any of these quite easily from Arch.
Are you running an Nvidea card? These are often known to have various obscure issues.
There is a lot of detail in Yoshimi's windows so this could be triggering bugs in a borderline setup.
Not heard anything more from the O/P for a long time. I'll leave it another
week or so, and if there is still no response I'll assume the problem has been
solved and close this issue.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
Still heard nothing from the O/P so I'm closing this
