Hi all,
I’ve recently encountered an issue with a program which uses the root libraries to display some plots of incoming data. When I physically sit at the computer, everything works fine. However, when I try to run the program via an ssh connection with X11 forwarding, it segfaults on me. If I disable the graphics, then it works fine. If I run an interactive root session over ssh, everything works fine.
The ‘server’ is running Ubuntu 8.10 (intrepid ibex) with kernel 2.6.27-11-generic, and root v5.18, provided by synaptic. The client, if it matters, is an apple with os 10.5.6.
The full gdb dump is below, but it seems to be hitting a problem at TGViewPort::HandleConfigureNotify(). Any guesses? I’m not sure how stable Ubuntu’s X11 implementation is (I know apple’s is messed up), so the problem might lie there instead
Here is the debug info provided by gdb:
