Certain themes cause KDE docklets to freeze X/fluxbox #696

Open sillysloft opened 17 years ago

sillysloft commented 17 years ago

Using x11-wm/fluxbox-0.9.15.1-r1 ebuild in Gentoo, when the bunker-one and bunker-one-xpm themes are selected, amarok, juk, and akregator cause an immediate freeze when opened. This seems to be caused by any KDE app which opens a dock item in the slit; xpad, gaim, etc. do not cause any problems.

The freeze is actually just X and fluxbox using up the CPU. Ctrl-alt-backspace works and the cursor will still move, and it is possible to SSH and observe that X is using about 60% of the CPU cycles and fluxbox is using the rest.

There is discussion on the topic here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-441314-highlight-fluxbox+freeze.html

I am using xorg-x11-7.1 from the Gentoo ebuild.

Why do these bugs go unreported for a year? Anyway, get a recent version of fluxbox (preferably svn) and tell us if it still happens.

I tried the latest development version on the website (fluxbox-1.0rc2). bunker-one and amarok or akregator still causes 100% CPU usage, but the docklet now responds to right-click. I managed to quick amarok, and after a minute or so of continued unresponsiveness, things went back to normal, so the freeze isn't permanant anymore, but these KDE apps still don't work.

O.K. I've just tried it with svn fluxbox, amarok, and both of those styles, and I didn't notice anything. Perhaps it's been fixed. Care to try svn? If it still causes problems for you, we'll have to look at deeper settings. In that case, post the output of `fluxbox -i', and also your init file. Otherwise, just tell me it's been fixed.

Yes, you already told me that. Get svn.

It looks like running the fluxbox-1.0_rc2-r2.ebuild and etc-update in Gentoo made the problem disappear for me, but running the version of 1.0rc2 I compiled from scratch into my $HOME still demonstrates the freezing problem. I'm guessing this is a Gentoo-related problem and it looks like the Gentoo people have it taken care of.

If this is still an issue, I have some code in svn that might address it. I still can't reproduce it.
