lxpanel crashes when click right mouse button

Post by lodger »

hi,
after last updating of ArchLinux, often lxpanel crashes when i click right mouse button on it.

dmesg log:

Code: Select all

[ 1523.930328] traps: lxpanel[2103] general protection ip:7fd9d85c0899 sp:7fffddbd42b0 error:0 in libgobject-2.0.so.0.5400.3[7fd9d8589000+54000]

Code: Select all

$ lxpanel

(process:26715): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
	Using the fallback 'C' locale.

** (lxpanel:26715): WARNING **: The directory '~/Templates' doesn't exist, ignoring it

** (lxpanel:26715): WARNING **: launchbar: desktop entry does not exist

** (lxpanel:26715): WARNING **: launchbar: desktop entry does not exist
Errore di segmentazione (core dump creato)

i use only openbox with lxpanel 0.9.3-1 on ArhcLinux64bit with 4.14.15-1 kernel
i use lxpanel since 2012 and never had similar problems.

This was a bug long time ago - was fixed, but apparently still pops up depending on the source of your initial installation. You might try re-installing lxpanel from a different source. One person in the past said he fixed the problem by changing monitor setting from 60 MHz to 75 MHz.

Personally, I recommend http://lxlinux.com/fbpanel.html over lxpanel for many reasons.

you should post about this on archlinux forums or open an issue / a bug report.

indeed i often change video refresh rate from 60 to 75Hz. but it crashes even in 75Hz mode.
i have tried to build directly from this source without configure options:
https://downloads.sourceforge.net/lxde/ ... 9.3.tar.xz
but i don't solved. i tried git version too.

why on earth would you do that?
is that when lxpanel crashes?

troubleshooting: start with an empty config by renaming the current. does it help?

because i play retro videogames. with NTSC games i set 60Hz, with PAL works better 75Hz.
anyway it isn't a refresh rate problem. The problem happens too in another PC where i never change refresh rate.

then i "solved" installing lxpanel 0.8.2.
