I will not update (for now) to the latest version 7.3.6.9326 because it crashes continuously for me.

Thanks, unfortunate timing then.

For reference, with Gnome shell / wayland I need to

unset QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME
unset QT_QPA_PLATFORM

to avoid

Google Earth has caught signal 6.

Hi Olive, As I said, but maybe not so clearly, google-earth 6 stopped working when I upgraded arch. So neither 6 or 7 work for me. They both crash in what appears from the strace to be the SAME way.

All of my problem were magically solved with google-earth6 that Det has kindly packaged. Does the 7 version have something so essential? Google earth is a closed source program and I think the only way it can be fixed is by waiting an updated version from Google. I don't understand though why Google does not take all these problems more seriously, they have a reputation of being very reliable, at least for their services (Gmail, etc.). Releasing a software that's so buggy definitively do not go in that direction.

I'm inclined to agree that it could well be a display driver/mesa issue but without an unstripped version of the executables we can only guess. Unless someone who has got the code wants to offer an opinion :-) I don't think I can realistically back out the 'X' part of the arch update. So the only option is to wait a couple of weeks and upgrade arch again and hope that fixes it and doesn't break anything else. Thanks for your help anyway.

Handler for SIGSEGV before the futex? Futex_wake_private is a system call for tasks waiting on that specific address so I don't think the SIGSEGV is happening _before_ futex() is actually waking the task to start reading it. That's also the reason I cut it from the second gettimeofday() onward because it or any of those other calls might have something to do with it. Also as I said I have a feeling that this is just a driver/mesa issue so you installing "handlers" like nvidia-utils wouldn't make a difference.

lineage commented on 2013-02-04 21:25 (UTC)

Still, it looks like there are things happening in your paste with rt_sigaction that are not in mine.. And I think your #-# line should be 12 lines further down after the futex - since that completed (return stat = 0) in mine.. So in your system you had installed a handler for SIGSEGV before the futex - in my case it hadn't. So there is certainly something wierdly different. I tried GE6 - exactly the same! Which is very odd. @olive - In this case its not google - this is Arch that has screwed something up (yet again). GE6 worked before I upgraded arch.

Det commented on 2013-02-04 14:46 (UTC)

Yeah, no, because the app is i386: └┌(%:~/Desktop)┌- objdump -f /opt/google/earth/free/googleearth-bin /opt/google/earth/free/googleearth-bin: file format elf32-i386 architecture: i386, flags 0x00000112: EXEC_P, HAS_SYMS, D_PAGED start address 0x080486c0

Hi Det, No, I didn't have time to download and build a GE6 pkg this morning. Will try to do it later. Thanks for the paste. I wondered if the 32 [i686 ;-)] vs 64 bit would make any difference.

I have fixed my crush installing https://launchpadlibrarian.net/7037027/libGL.so.1. But earth view is completelly grey :)

Det commented on 2013-02-04 11:25 (UTC)

Yes, I have an x86 machine, but my system is 64-bit, if that's what you meant :). Not that it matters, since the app is 32-bit anyway. I had a look at it yesterday when I compared the two and I can't say it helps (the one with 65-fonts-persian.conf): http://pastebin.com/B7FwBbxV The hyphen/hash break at line 861 signals the differences after the 3rd gettimeofday() (which in my case is called twice in a row). E: You had a look at the GE6 log yet?
