Arch Linux

I'm unable to reproduce any segfaults.

Could you provide steps to reproduce the issue?

I just started it.

I use xfce 4.10 and cairo 2.12.2 from 4.Mai.2012. I see no problem. Unable to reproduce any segfaults too.
(After updating to xfce 4.10 i am started with a completely clean environment in .config/xfce4.)

@Silvio: Try getting a backtrace [1] and attach it here.

Maybe some panel plugin causes this. Please try to start a clean xfce session or at least a clean new panel without any plugin. Panel works well for me too.

After a restart the problem appears again (yeah, laptop, always hibernate and such) and I got a segfault again. I built the packages mentioned in the back trace by myself with debug enabled, so I think it's meaningfull.

Please attach said backtrace.

There it is.

Can you provide a bit more information about your configuration that might help us reproduce the problem?

For example, where does the Geany icon appear?

Probably the best if I add my ~/.config/xfce4 directory. You should get two panels at top and bottom with auto hiding. Geany should be at the top left alligned after menu, seperator and some starters like firefox and vlc.

I tried your configuration with a new user account and still couldn't reproduce any crashes.

@Andreas: Any ideas?

This could be graphic card driver related too. What card is it? Any AUR or self built packages (Xorg, catalyst,....) ?

If all is pretty common you should report this to the cairo guys first.

Well, I have the intel driver installed:
extra/intel-dri 8.0.3-1
extra/intel-ucode 20111110-2
extra/xf86-video-intel 2.19.0-1
multilib/lib32-intel-dri 8.0.3-3

My video card is a »Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller«.

Please show your 'pacman -Qm' output

Ok, I checked it. Obviosly, the geany icon from the faenza icon theme used as a starter is causing this. Really strange.

I was finally able to reproduce the segfaults after installing the Faenza icon theme.

I have reported the issue upstream:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50852

Please test cairo 1.12.2-2 from [testing]; it should fix the segfaults.

Works as expected. Thank you.
