Bug#296994: Xlib: sequence lost ... / Xlib: unexpected async reply
Package: xlibs
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10
Severity: important
hello,
after upgrading, I've got instability in StarOffice 5.2, which works just
fine in Woody, and used to be as well in Sarge, till I guess some latest
upgrade. I'm unable to tell which package/version to blame though, as I
started looking into the problem when SO5.2 - my main app - started
crashing way too often - hence the 'important' tag.
I'm thinking of xlibs as the only clue I got so far is the apparence
of lines like:
Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x21db)!
Xlib: sequence lost (0x1187e > 0x192b) in reply type 0xe!
Xlib: sequence lost (0x118a4 > 0x192b) in reply type 0xe!
Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x19e1)!
Xlib: sequence lost (0x1257a > 0x26d4) in reply type 0xe!
Xlib: sequence lost (0x1258f > 0x26d4) in reply type 0xe!
in .xsession-errors
I've read that's related to threading in Xlib, and may originate from apps
as well as from widgets, I've read it may be harmless, as well as a symptom
of bad behaviour - I'm leaning toward the latter, in my case, though don't
know who's guilty here.
How can I (try to) better track down the problem?
thanks
