For a week or more, I've been having problems with iceape and a few other programs. As far as I can see, they get a segmentation fault and just disappear. From the debugging and back traces that I've done, it appears that I may be missing or have corrupted files relating to Gtk and GLib. Unfortunately, I'm not savvy enough to decipher the information and correct the problem. I could use a little assistance with this.
I am running KDE and wheezy with the updated kernel 2.6.38-2-686 #1 SMP. The new kernel had no effect on the problem. Wheezy is up to date. iceape version is 2.0.13-1 Some of the operations which cause a seg fault include trying to send email with iceape (always), sometimes opening a particular web page will do it, and it appears the acroread will always do it (while other pdf readers will not). At times, gmail started from the iceape web browser will also fault. I'm only able to send email via using Google Chrome to start gmail. I installed iceape-dbg and followed the directions in the file at /usr/share/bug/iceape-dbg/presubj Starting iceape in safe mode with "iceape -safe-more" command line resulted in segmentation fault; following the suggestion to use the MOZILLA_DISABLE_PLUGINS=1 resulted in many warning and "critical" as you can see in the following screen capture: don@kali:~$ iceape -safe-mode Segmentation fault don@kali:~$ MOZILLA_DISABLE_PLUGINS=1 iceape (iceape-bin:3097): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'gtk-go-back-ltr' for stock: Icon 'gtk-go-back-ltr' not present in theme (iceape-bin:3097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (iceape-bin:3097): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_default_render_icon: assertion `base_pixbuf != NULL' failed (iceape-bin:3097): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_style_render_icon: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (iceape-bin:3097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (iceape-bin:3097): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'gtk-go-forward-ltr' for stock: Icon 'gtk-go-forward-ltr' not present in theme (iceape-bin:3097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (iceape-bin:3097): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_default_render_icon: assertion `base_pixbuf != NULL' failed (iceape-bin:3097): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_style_render_icon: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (iceape-bin:3097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (iceape-bin:3097): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'gtk-go-forward-ltr' for stock: Icon 'gtk-go-forward-ltr' not present in theme (iceape-bin:3097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (iceape-bin:3097): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_default_render_icon: assertion `base_pixbuf != NULL' failed (iceape-bin:3097): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_style_render_icon: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (iceape-bin:3097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (iceape-bin:3097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (iceape-bin:3097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (iceape-bin:3097): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'gtk-go-forward-ltr' for stock: Icon 'gtk-go-forward-ltr' not present in theme (iceape-bin:3097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (iceape-bin:3097): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_default_render_icon: assertion `base_pixbuf != NULL' failed (iceape-bin:3097): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_style_render_icon: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (iceape-bin:3097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed Segmentation fault don@kali:~$ I also ran gdb using the command line "iceape -g" which resulted in many lines and eventual segmentation fault. A "bt" was also done per instructions. I have this in a file if it would help diagnosing my problem, but I have a feeling that the above information may be adequate for someone to tell me if I am missing files or something. I also tried installing firefox and it too bombs out the same way as iceape, so my suspicion is iceape is OK and it is external file(s). Can someone interpret the warnings and critical stuff for me? I'm not a newbie, but I have little experience in this area. I do have two other problems that has recently popped up, and I do not know if they are related to this problem or not, but I'll mention just in case it should give any more clues: (1) iceape, when closed by either the X in upper right corner of KDE or thru file->exit, continues to operate. I have to kill the process in order to restart iceape several minutes later. (2) the icons on my desktop do not maintain their position if rebooted, and using icons->sort does not respond properly. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
