java crashed with signal 5 in _XError()

[Skully]

Note sure if its a java or eclipse bug.
I am not using the eclipse package from the ubuntu repository either.

That crash happens for me when auto-completion is used.

Like "System.out." and waiting for the possibilites, then very often (not always) eclipse crashes.

I used the reduced report since the full one had a size of over 600mb

Maybe I was a bit hasty this bug matches the one I have like glove. However this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse/+bug/528324 could have been a better match

Not sure about the right nomenclatue, but I'm pretty confident that this is not a java/eclipse bug per se. It happens with Sun's jdk versions u16 and u18 and with latest open-jdk

And it started to happen suddenly on Lucid after a routine update. It can of course be that change in X/Gtk stack have revealed a bug in java/eclipse, but it can be also the other way round.

My crash happened after starting Vuze

[Vasile Rotaru (vrotaru-md)]

In my case (Eclipse) it was already sorted out. It is a xulrunner bug, which seems to be fixed in daily releases. In the meantime running eclipse like this:

GRE_HOME=some-kind-of-gibberish ./eclipse

works for me. Well, not fully since the embedder browser is disabled. Not sure how bid a deal this can be for Vuze. If this is the same bug of course.

Kudos to Tristan Tarrant for finding this out. Here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse/+bug/528324

I have the same issue but with Eclipse from the Ubuntu repository.

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

seeing this kind of crash in two different applications (python-tk in bug #527254 and openjdk-6 in bug #530898); is there a common problem with X?

Hi Skully,

Thanks for including the attached files. Could you also include your /var/log/Xorg.0.log (or Xorg.0.log.old) from after reproducing the issue?

Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn` too.
