I'm confused by your report - are you saying that google earth does work after all, just that you see a warning when running it? Is that true for stellarium as well?

If stellarium is still crashing, please collect a backtrace on that.

I think the stellarium crash may be unrelated to the warning message. I think the two issue should be split out and handled separately, so would ask that you select one of the issues to focus on for this bug report (perhaps the warning message?) and then file a new bug for the other one.

With the mesa 7.6.0 release, a corrupted low memory error appears in dmesg. Both stellarium and googleearth crash. Downgrading back to a git snapshot of mesa from mid-August makes these problems go away.

This dmesg is after reverting mesa to the older version (a git snapshot from mid-august). Reporter reports:

"So i downgrade to the old mesa, reboot the computer and no more probleme with stellarium or googleearth and also no more memory corruption in dmesg."

Sorry for the confusion, but after more testing googleearth crash also but not immediately. I try to backtrace like you ask (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace) but it's not very succesfull:

- with stellarium i have a xorg deadlock after the "run" command......

-with googlearth gdb tell me that /usr/bin/googleearth": not in executable format. So i read the /usr/bin/googleearth:

#!/bin/bash
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/googleearth:"${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}"
cd /usr/lib/googleearth
exec /usr/lib/googleearth/googleearth-bin "$@"

So i try gdb with /usr/lib/googleearth/googleearth-bin but i have a probleme with the run command:

Starting program: /usr/lib/googleearth/googleearth-bin
/usr/lib/googleearth/googleearth-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libgoogleearth_lib.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Program exited with code 0177.

What can i do ????

I think this probleme are related because they appear just after the upgrade of mesa ( no probleme before).

Thank you for your interest and i wait for your advice.

You have this error message in the googleearth crash:
drmRadeonCmdBuffer: -12. Kernel failed to parse or rejected command stream. See dmesg for more info.

Can you attach the output of `dmesg` from after reproducing the crash so we can see this additional info?

Also, in your gdb output from comment #5, it looks like you almost got the full backtrace.. Can you please repeat that and then collect the full backtrace? Like this:

  (gdb) set logging on gdb.txt
  (gdb) run
  (gdb) backtrace full

If xorg is locking up, you may need to run gdb from a tty console or from sshing into the machine.

Whoa, from your dmesg output it appears you have something seriously
wrong with your memory. In fact that dmesg shows an issue in
check_for_bios_corruption that looks pretty serious.

Does the issue go away if you downgrade to the old mesa? Install from

Thanks for all this debugging work jean-baptiste. Downgrading the mesa to the old version seems to prove it is indeed a regression in mesa. I've gone ahead and forwarded this upstream:

  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24414

Please subscribe yourself to that bug in case upstream needs more information or wishes you to test something.

If you would be willing to test one other thing, I notice a number of settings specified in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf. It is possible one of these settings could be interfering with proper mesa operation. If possible it would be helpful if you could try booting with no xorg.conf at all (just move it aside).

If it does not crash with no xorg.conf, then it would be interesting to individually comment out each of the Option lines in the xorg.conf to see which one(s) produce this ill behavior.

Thanks ahead of time

Both stellarium and googleearth run fine here on RV515 so this might be limited to R100.

Hello git-bisect is really too hard for me. In fact, i give up for the moment, Xorg is really changing fast this time and with all the future techno coming (kms, gallium3D), it is just a bad time to have. But the most important is to have a working configuration and for this https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-retro is very easy.

Just one little thing my compter is also affected by this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/426582 witch can be solve by installing the xserver-xorg-video-radeon of jaunty. Maybe the same x-retro thing can be made for this.

I hope that a more competent person can finish the job, in this case i can help to confirm.

I also had Stellarium crash after upgrading on an IBM T30. The video card is "ATI Radeon Mobility M7 LW (AGP)" and I was using the "radeon" (not "ati") X driver. The error reports in dmesg as segfault in radeon_dri.so

The crash no longer occurs after downgrading libgl1-mesa-dri from 7.6.0-1 to 7.4.0 (only that one change made).

(However, when closing Stellarium, there are now loads of "freeing invalid memtype" errors in dmesg/syslog. Maybe it always did that?)

I can, sadly, confirm this issue still present in Karmic with:

Same laptop jean-baptiste: Thinkpad T42
Also, I've run the "apport-collect 446674" command.. but don't know how attach the results.

Similar problem with blender 3D (2.49 and 2.50 alpha):

Rendering was 138 commands larger than predicted size. We might overflow command buffer.

drmRadeonCmdBuffer: -22. Kernel failed to parse or rejected command stream. See dmesg for more info.

No further info in dmesg.

This message occurs (only?) while trying to load a particular large (20 MB) and I presume quite complicated blend file:

from

Smaller scenes seems uneffected.

Since bug 446632 I'm running the drivers from xorg-edgers.

Hi jean-baptiste,

This bug was reported against an earlier version of Ubuntu, can you
test if it still occurs on Lucid?

If you are the original reporter and can still reproduce the issue on
Lucid, please run the following command to refresh the report:

Hi, I have the Mobility 7500 Radeon chip (in a Dell Latitude C640) and vaguely remember having this problem when I upgraded to Karmic - looks like I installed the X Retro PPA at that time.

Just upgraded to lucid, I can start Stellarium but it's really slow, also 3-D games are slow again.
