I also am getting an error similar to this. Originally the problem was fixed by not using the new Wave theme'. However, after a recent system update via the update manager the fault returned - all the themes tried have produced the same result - a crash after a few seconds of runnning. I have also posted a report on bug 411941.
Using KK 9.10, 2.6.31.-19 Nvidia drivers Gnome 2.28.1 I have tried with desktop effects on and off. Machine is an Acer Revo with Atom 230 processor, 3GB RAM. Error as follows : (/usr/lib/f-spot/f-spot.exe:2013): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: GdkPixbufLoader finalized without calling gdk_pixbuf_loader_close() - this is not allowed. You must explicitly end the data stream to the loader before dropping the last reference. The program '/usr/lib/f-spot/f-spot.exe' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 4021 error_code 11 request_code 53 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) I have not been able to run in gdb as yet - if i get the chance I wil post the results. -- opens for a few seconds then closes. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/520186 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
