Hi,
I'm using xorg 7.0 with the composite extension and inkscape is very easy to crash. I do the following:
1) start inkscape 2) use e.g. the rectangle tool to draw a shape 3) open the fill&stroke dielog 4) change the width of the stroke for the rectangle 5) click outside the rectangle to de-select it.
Inkscape crashes immediately every time, after giving the following error: ------------------------------- (inkscape:22744): Gdk-WARNING **: Attempt to draw a drawable with depth 32 to a drawable with depth 24
(inkscape:22744): Gdk-WARNING **: gdkpixbuf-drawable.c:1257: Depth of the source drawable is 32 where as the visual depth of the colormap passed is 24
(inkscape:22744): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_copy: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed
(inkscape:22744): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_saturate_and_pixelate: assertion `GDK_IS_PIXBUF (src)' failed
Emergency save activated! --------------------------------
Actually, the first two messages I think are appearing right before, when I change the width of the stroke.
If I disable the composite extension, the identical procedure gives no crash.
Is xorg still buggy, or is his a "proper" inkscape bug? I'll do a gdb trace if it's interesting.
Cheers,
