Description Bit Twister 2012-03-16 02:30:54 CET 
Description of problem:

# /usr/sbin/XFdrake
Click Graphic Card
Shows Radeon HD 2000 and Later (radeon/fglrx)
click Ok
The program 'XFdrake' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow'.
  (Details: serial 45695 error_code 3 request_code 151 minor_code 3)
  (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.)

#

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Clean Mageia-2-beta2-x86_64-DVD.iso install + updates 
   + radeon-firmware + kernel-firmware-nonfree-20120219-1 and reboot
2. default runlevel is 3
3. click up a terminal (I am using xterm)
4. su - root
5. /usr/sbin/XFdrake
6. Click Graphic Card
7. Shows Radeon HD 2000 and Later (radeon/fglrx)
8. click Ok

Worked fine with beta1 iso.

Seems to be fixed with oxygen-gtk 1.2.1 (reverted). Please test

Hmmm, all updates applied and system rebooted, still broke here.
Comment 5 D Morgan 2012-03-20 16:35:13 CET 
because you still use the old one, you need to manually revert in your system ( we reverted to the old version )

Should some other package(s) be reverted?

Comment 7 Bit Twister 2012-03-21 23:13:02 CET 
If someone can debug totem you might find the culprit faster.

$ totem

(totem:3773): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: gtk.css:58:46: Unknown value 'GTK_SHADOW_NONE' for enum type 'GtkShadowType'

(totem:3773): GVFS-RemoteVolumeMonitor-WARNING **: remote volume monitor with dbus name org.gtk.Private.UDisks2VolumeMonitor is not supported


Here I clicked a .flv file and it crashed. Same with a .mpg file.

(totem:3773): Gdk-ERROR **: The program 'totem' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 26828 error_code 3 request_code 153 minor_code 3)
  (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 GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment
   variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

/usr/bin/dragon crashed first time I played a .flv, next launch worked.

Hello,
I encounter the same problem with the configuration of the boot (grub) and the configuration of the graphical boot (automatic connection)

Comment 10 Bit Twister 2012-03-25 06:42:50 CEST 
latest kernel, fglrx rpms knocked my radeon/ati video frame rate from 175 back to 30 FPS. :(

Unable to use XFdrake to manage settings.  :(

Comment 11 Bit Twister 2012-03-25 15:00:19 CEST 
Guessing latest release of oxygen-gtk has fixed the problem.
XFdrake now works on my 64 bit host and on 32 and 64 bit VirtualBox guests.

If other window/screens are broke like comment 9 a new bug report should be opened.
