Codeblocks triggers X Windows System error
ASJ:
All of a sudden my Codeblocks doesn't start up anymore, giving the following message right after the splash screen flashes for a moment:
--- Code: --- The program 'codeblocks' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
(Details: serial 1304 error_code 11 request_code 145 minor_code 5)
(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.)
--- End code ---
After re-installing x.org this problem still remains. Also building a new version from svn does not change anything. I am using openSuse 10.3 (also tried the TuXKeeper rpm, it gives the same problems).
Does anyone have the same problem or have a clue to solve this problem?
TIA
Jenna:
This is not (only) a C::B problem:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=461410
You can downgrade "xserver-xorg-core" manually to make it work again.

Reinstalling to Codeblocks svn4830 (from 'lgp203.free.fr' repository) don't help... :(

Again: it's not C::B related.
It's a bug in xserver-xorg caused by a security update.
For Ubuntu look here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/183969 .

I just got a mail from debian package-maintainer.
As workaround you can try to put the following into "xorg.conf" and restart XServer:
--- Code: --- Section "Extensions"
Option "MIT-SHM" "no"
EndSection
--- End code ---

xorg.conf addition works for me. Thanks lad.
