Public bug reported: forked from 1671799
Onscripter autopkgtests use xvfb to run some scripted tests. Onscripter itself initializes SDL, and this is somewhat unreliable on a qemu instance where the X11 connection can fail, especially if Xvfb is started via xvfb-run. The tests don't need X11, instead it can use the dummy driver which is enough for running the tests. The actual bug remains, 1.19 is for some reason unreliable for SDL where 1.18 wasn't. This will be reported upstream, as it can be reproduced on Debian as well. Real hw is less likely to hit this, much easier to reproduce with qemu. ** Affects: onscripter (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: onscripter (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1679209 Title: SDL video init unreliable with xvfb 1.19 on qemu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onscripter/+bug/1679209/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
