Photon Crash

I have certain graphical applications running in Photon. For some reason,
Photon crashes unexpectedly. The crash is random and all I see is a blank
screen. At that moment if I type in

CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+BACKSPACE, it takes me to text mode and I see these messages.

Could not init font path element /opt/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo , removing
from list
/opt/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 , removing from list
/opt/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID , removing from list
/opt/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi , removing from list

Exit from Signal1

What could be the cause of the crash?

Thanks

Is the screen completely blank, or can you still see the mouse cursor?

What could be the cause of the crash?

Are you running dumper? Does it create any core files?

Yes,
I do see the mouse cursor and can move the cursor.

The core file that gets created is “pwm.core”.

I appreciate your suggestions

Can I have a copy? There is a known problem that sometimes causes pwm
to crash when you close a window; I’d like to confirm that your crash is
not something else…

Thanks for your reply. I tried to attach the file, but am having problems
uploading this file and hence can’t
send it to you . Its about 1.83MB is size.

Hi Wojtek,

Would you mind if I emailed the core file to you?

Thanks

Before, or after gzip?

Sure, no problem.

Hi Wojtek,

I sent the core file to your yahoo address yesterday. I am presuming that
your received it.

Um… No, I didn’t.

Perhaps you could try sending it directly to my addres here at QNX –
it’s my first name at you know what.

From a quick look, it looks like the known problem. I’ll let you know
if I find out anything more.

Hi Wojtek,

Did you figure out what might be the problem with our photon windows
manager?

Thanks
