sax2: failed to startup correctly
Last modified: 2008-02-28 15:57:23 UTC
Created attachment 194246 [details] SaX log After notification: SaX2 Importing Data SaX2 crashes (nothing happens) So i' m not able to install driver for graphic card.
Created attachment 194247 [details] Xorg.0.log
Created attachment 194248 [details] Xorg.99.log
Hmm, the logs doesn't lead me to an error. Could you reproduce the problem if you call the following: init 3 sax2 --> click on change configuration --> click on ok/save send the newly written /var/log/SaX.log file Thanks
From command line it happens if i call --> click on change configuration From GUI it happens after SaX2.It shows me only: SaX2 Importing Data and then nothing (attachced snapshot)
Created attachment 194633 [details] sax snapshot
Created attachment 194635 [details] newer SaX log
it looks like it has crashed for some reason. Could you try the following: - on your running session type /usr/sbin/xapi does it crash ? if yes could you run the binary in gdb and send a backtrace it makes sense to have the sax2 debuginfo installed for the following gdb /usr/sbin/xapi run bt thanks
command /usr/sbin/xapi launched sax2, but after changing resolution i couldn't neither test it nor saved it. I obtained messages about configuration failures.Attached snapshots.
Created attachment 194770 [details] saving configuration failed
Created attachment 194771 [details] testing configuration failed
Created attachment 194773 [details] the newest xorg log
ah that's ok I guess you called xapi as normal user so you don't have rights to create xorg.conf. Strange enough I thought the application would crash if you call su /usr/sbin/xapi but be careful you are now able to write xorg.conf
I tried it as root, but nothing happened.After changing of resolution and monitor i clicked on test or save, but nothing happened.SaX2 was like "frozen".I was able to close it only via System Activity -> Kill Process (Ctrl+Esc) Just to be sure i've attached the newest sax log
Created attachment 195060 [details] the newest sax.log
could you run it in gdb to find out which function it calls last ? I suggest to install the sax2 debuginfo package and after that call su root gdb xapi ---> run ---> bt (if the debugger allos you that when it hangs) by the way _don't_ click on test. This runs another X-Server and could bite us with searching for the problem at this stage. So use the save button not the test button thanks
SaX2 is still frozen after saving.It looks like on attached snapshot.
Created attachment 195769 [details] attached "frozen" sax
Created attachment 195771 [details] and here you are output gdb
#0 0xffffe410 in __kernel_vsyscall () #8 0xb7ead8b4 in SaX::SaXProcessCall::start () from /usr/lib/libsax.so.7 there must be some process called by sax2 which does not end and cause the GUI to be in sleep mode. Could you check with pstree what processes runs when sax2 is in that strange state ? Thanks

I dont't know, but could it be this reason? When i wanted to save settings of SaX2(clicking on save button), it froze (on attached snapshot "frozen" sax) So, then i had to kill SaX2 via Ctrl+Esc -> system activity -> kill process -> xapi Could you check with > > pstree > > what processes runs when sax2 is in that strange state ? > > Thanks user@linux-554y:~/Desktop> pstree init─┬─acpid ├─auditd─┬─audispd───{audispd} │ └─{auditd} ├─avahi-daemon ├─avahi-dnsconfd ├─console-kit-dae───62*[{console-kit-dae}] ├─cron ├─cupsd ├─2*[dbus-daemon] ├─dcopserver ├─dhcpcd ├─gconfd-2 ├─hald───hald-runner─┬─hald-addon-acpi │ ├─hald-addon-inpu │ └─2*[hald-addon-stor] ├─kaccess ├─kded ├─kded4 ├─kdeinit─┬─kio_file │ └─klauncher ├─kdeinit4─┬─firefox───firefox-bin───6*[{firefox-bin}] │ ├─kate───bash───pstree │ ├─kio_file │ ├─klauncher │ └─kwin ├─kdesud ├─kdm─┬─Xorg │ └─kdm───startkde─┬─kwrapper4 │ └─ssh-agent ├─klipper ├─klogd ├─kmix ├─knetworkmanager ├─knotify4───13*[{knotify4}] ├─konsole───bash───su───bash───xapi───isax ├─krunner───{krunner} ├─ksmserver───{ksmserver} ├─master─┬─pickup │ └─qmgr ├─6*[mingetty] ├─nscd───8*[{nscd}] ├─opensuseupdater ├─plasma───{plasma} ├─portmap ├─powersaved ├─resmgrd ├─sshd ├─syslog-ng └─udevd

linux-554y:/home/user # ps aux | grep isax root 3776 85.2 2.7 40428 35840 pts/3 R+ 20:21 0:08 /usr/bin/perl /usr/sbin/isax -f /var/lib/sax/apidata -c /var/lib/sax/xorg.conf root 3790 0.0 0.0 3044 736 pts/2 R+ 20:21 0:00 grep isax
ok, so now we should be able to reproduce it: 1) could you send the file /var/lib/sax/apidata 2) if you manually call: /usr/sbin/isax -f /var/lib/sax/apidata -c /var/lib/sax/xorg.conf can you see any error messages. The process hands right ?
