Debian Multimedia :: Blender Won't Start / Get It To Work?
Jul 5, 2010
I have recently install Blender on my system (squeeze, 2.6.32-5-amd64, ATI Radeon HD 3100) and when I try and start it I get a segmentation fault. I am using the proprietary driver. When i run glxinfo or glxgears I get a segmentation fault as well which makes me think I have an issue with my hardware acceleration.
I am really suck when it comes to trying to diagnose the problem any further and would appreciate any help you guys have. My system is up to date and Blender has worked before on an almost identical setup (i reinstall debian a while back, may have been using a slightly older kernel then).

While Blender 2.5 may be stable, the Python API is not. According to the Blender website... Note: The Blender Python API has areas which are still in development. The following areas are subject to change. -operator behavior, names and arguments -mesh creation and editing functions.

This will be my first posting here. Please forgive me for not posting this issue under the right place on the forum. I highly ask to the mod/admins to move this post to the correct location if needed to be, or let it continue as normal. My problem here is with this software blender 2.56a, I'm running Ubuntu 10.10. 64bit This version of blender worked just fine for me since it updated to my computer. But right after finishing an complex render, blender crashed and will not start up again.
Every time I click on the icon it just keeps flashing up and crashing down. So I went to the main blender site, and downloaded one of their stand alone version of the 2.56a. I ran it and it works just fine.
I tried reinstalling blender 2.56a under Synaptic, but no use. I'm out of ideas, I want this software to run like it use to. Again, It use to run without any problems, but just under one hard render it crashed, and Now it wont launch again.
However, I did mange to get my project to render just find under the stand alone. If any one needs some sort of debugging file, or information of some kind. I would then need to know how to re-chieve it..

I hope this is the right forum for this.
I downloaded Blender today to try my hand at making some 3D graphics. I have used it in the past on a windows machine and it ran smoothly. This time I have downloaded it onto a computer with similar specs but it runs very slowly. The program is laggy and slow to respond to both keyboard and mouse input. When I checked the system monitor it said that I am using 50% of my cpu and 1/6th of my memory running both Blender and Firefox(to write this post). The machine is running no hotter than usual and the fans do not seem to be being stressed at all.
Does anyone know what could be causing the program to run so slowly?

I'm running Natty with the official Blender 2.57 32-bit build.This same problem occurs with previous version of Blender and Ubuntu, although not with Blender 2.4x or any other programs.Pressing the control key does nothing in Blender. Pressing 'Ctrl+S' causes the active object to scale, as if I just pressed 'S'. If I run 'killall gnome-settings-daemon', it temporarily works normally, but then I lose Gtk themes and icons and stuff.
I'm on a Dell Latitude D620, and I haven't messed with any keyboard settings.I know people using the same hardware and OS that can use Blender fine, so I'm guessing there's some sort of xinput configuration or something that got messed up somehow.

After becoming somewhat disillusioned with a number of other distro's I decided to turn to debian and I must say I like it! Install was a breeze, I even did my own partitioning instead of letting the installer handle it ... I've since come across one of the same problems that I encountered on all the other distro's I've tried so far.I'm using:
Squeeze 2.6.32-trunk-amd64,
Intel Core2 Quad (Q9550)
Asus Pro Turbo main board,
[code]....
It seems that simply unplugging all USB devices and rebooting was all I needed to do.The other sound issue I have (that also occurs on a number of other distro's) happens when I launch Blender. If I have music playing when blender is launched the sound cuts out. If I kill the music player and restart it the sound is back.Below is my audio controller;
lspci -v | grep -i audio
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) HD Audio Controller

I'm having trouble using Blender and XBMC after upgrading to Ubuntu 10.10. Whenever I start the Game Engine mode in Blender (by pressing 'P'), Blender crashes. This happens both in the repository version (2.49.2) and with the newest version (2.54 beta).
For some reason, xbmc actually starts without problems now, but earlier the console output was somewhat similar to that of Blender. The output from Blender seems to indicate that there is something wrong with either libc6 or the NVIDIA drivers. The xbmc output (which now works ok) mentioned something about /lib/nvidia-current/libGL.so, if I remember correctly.
The output at crash is as follows:
Blender 2.54:
Code:
./blenderfound bundled python: /pathtoblender2.54/2.54/python
Detected GL_ARB_texture_env_combine
Detected GL_ARB_texture_cube_map
Detected GL_ARB_multitexture

When I login in the kde login in screen starts, but then I hear a beep and it freezes. If I hit ctrl-alt-f2 and log in and then type startx, a blinking curser appears and nothing happens.I am trying to set up VirtualBox to run Windows 7 and I am having trouble getting some usb devices to be recognized in Windows. I tryed following the advice of this link URL...After I added the group vboxusers to my user account and restarted the computer, this problem started.
I ran the command Code: Select alldeluser jrchristophel vboxusers, and I get the response back Code: Select allyou may not remove the user from their primary group.
The other things I did that might have caused this problem was that I installed virtual guest additions for VirtualBox, and one other addition that was needed for the USB functionality with in VirtualBox. I can't remember the name of that which I installed.I have looked at some of the logs in /var/logs.

My room mate is trying to use an old Dell he has as a print server. After much twisting his arm, I was able to convince him to go with Debian, which, I would install. I used a 5.0.4 Net Install CD I had, and included Desktop Environment (he needs a GUI), and Print Server. Basically, as usually happens when I install Debian, I am having trouble getting X to work. Heres what the errors look like after X fails:
Ring End Space: 24 wanted 32
Fatal server error: lockup
Waiting for X server to begin accepting connections giving up.
xinit: Connection reset by peer (errno 104): Unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error

I have been trying to install Squeeze from the 6.0.1a KDE CD-1 plus the Debian repos. I just cannot get X to work. I get similar bad results to those mentioned by other users having similar problems, but none of the suggested fixes works.
Basic hardware information:
Desktop PC, whole 40 GB disk used for install
Graphics card: none Video controller on motherboard: VIA Technologies S3 UniChrome VGA controller (about 8 years old)
Monitor: Samsung Syncmaster 1280 x 1024 (about 8 years old)
Some things I've already tried: in rescue mode, as root, in /etc/X11X -configuremove file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf basically everything mentioned in threads in past two months regarding users who cannot get X to work reinstalling 100x with every choice for the installer I can think of
What happens: when doing the install, contrary to expectation, I am never prompted for any of the hardware information which the documentation at debian.org says I should have on hand (is that a good sign or a bad sign?)
No matter how I try to do the install,I always seem to get a nongraphical installation, so I try this: as root:apt-get install xorg in /etc/X11X -configthen move generated file (which looks like X didn't try to create an actual configuration file) to /etc/X11/xorg.config as non-root user:startx I get black screen (or a tiny tiny konsole at upper left) and system hangs
How can I tell whether this an X misconfiguration? How can I fix it? How can I tell whether I simply need a driver? Where do I look? How can I tell whether my hardware is simply incompatible with Squeeze? What do I need to replace? Do I need to get a new monitor in order to use Squeeze? Do I need to buy a new motherboard with newer video controller? Do I need to buy a graphics card? Which?

X won't start (awesome WM) after upgrading to jessie. It seems to startup up, then just stops. I'm running startx from the command line after logging in. The xorg log (bottom) looks good and I see an exit code of zero.
I do see this in sysout:
Code: Select alldebian xf86TokenToOptinfo: table is NULL
Googled around but I can't find anything specific on this one.
I'm not using any xorg.conf, as booting into a linux rescue cd everything works ok

I installed libreoffice from the official Debian repository. Even after a clean installation of Debian Jessie, Libreoffice started and ran only once. After that, when LO was started, it gave an error message: "Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module".I installed "canberra-gtk-module." From then on, LO never gave any error message in terminal. The banner flashes across the screen for a moment and then disappears.
I deleted ~/.config/libreoffice folder and started LO again. Each time the command "libreoffice" is run in terminal, it creates the configuration files in ~/.config folder.I created a new user to check if LO would run. It does run when a new user account is created. But the problem keeps coming back.
After uninstalling libreoffice, I tried installing openoffice 4. Even openoffice 4 wouldn't start. The banner would just appear for a moment.

I was able to start multiple X servers before. Now after the upgrade to rootless X, I had to add myself to the "input" group to be able to start X, but I'm unable to start 2nd X on a different vt.

I have been using bumblebee on my Optimus Laptop for a long time.I think I have this problem since the last Xorg upgrade, some months ago. The upgrade notes warned that Xorg now runs on userspace, and that configuration files are now read from the user (although I haven't noticed that).Then optirun ceased to work. As I'm using sid, I'm used to things being broken sometimes, so I simply let it go waiting for an upgrade that would fix it. Since this upgrade (either to Xorg or to bumblebee) is not coming, I have searched on the Internet, and I'm surprised that many people have had problems with bumblebee, but no one seems to be having the same exact error (see below).
I have tried everything (everything my limited knowledge and my internet searches allow me). I have tried with nvidia and nouveau drivers, but I get more or less the same result.
Code: Select all$ sudo systemctl status bumblebeed
● bumblebeed.service - Bumblebee C Daemon
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/bumblebeed.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: active (running) since mié 2015-12-30 09:30:34 CET; 20min ago
[code]....
It seems Xorg is failing but is not giving any information about the failure, no message, which is different to the problems I have found in the Web.
I have purged bumblebee packages to assure I'm using default configuration files. I have added rcutree.rcu_idle_gp_delay=1 to GRUB_ CMDLINE_ LINUX_ DEFAULT as instructed on some howtos.

I asked the question on LQ, but since activity related to Debian there is smaller, it is here.
I can't start Openbox, using xinit or startx. I have a warning when using xinit:
Code: Select all***** Imlib2 Developer Warning ***** :
This program is calling the Imlib call:
imlib_context_free();
With the parameter:
context
being NULL. Please fix your program.
I don't have dbus, display managers, X is started on tty3 because I reduced the number of ttys. In xinitrc there is
Code: Select allexec openbox-session
I see a cursor appearing for a second, but then the screen goes back to tty.
The problem is new; I'd been using Openbox for a couple of months back then, and it was fine.
System is Unstable.

I am new to Debian (and Linux). I just finish to install minidlna to feed my TV with my Debian Jessie PC but I cannot make minidlna to start. I installed minidlna using synaptic. No error shown. I went to the config file to fill the parameters needed.
I started minidlna using the command line /etc/init.d/minidlna start and got the following each time :
XYZ@bureau:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/minidlna start
[sudo] password for XYZ:

I recently installed debian 8 stretch with xfce. Since the first time I boot, I have problem starting my X session: from lightdm I always attemped 2 or 3 times before it login (it returned me on lightdm prompt after a short splash screen).
Now it stopped working: the only way I can start xsession is running startx as root. When I try as user it starts the "splash" and return me to the tty with this error message:
Code: Select allServer terminated with error (1). Closing log file(EE)

I try to reconfigure Xorg but the Xorg -configure command result in another segmentation fault.
I think that the problem could be related with old configuration (when I install this version of debian I maintain the /home partition and my previous OS was debian 7 with xfce).

Linux noob here with a very fresh Debian 5.04 install. Not sure if this is the correct board for this but here goes;*No* programs start in X. Terminal, System Monitor, Epiphany, Gedit, Synaptic Package Manager... They all fail to start.The programs try to start for 15 seconds after which they give up. For example, if I press the Epiphany-icon in the panel I see "Starting Epiphany We..." in the lower-left corner and the mouse cursor changes to the loading animation for 15 seconds but then after that nothing happens and the "Starting Epiphany We..."-icon disappears. I have two users (plus root of course) and the same thing happens with both accounts.
I can start the icons I have on my desktop (Computer, Home folder, Trash and Downloads) and I can Lock the screen/log off/shut down but that's about it. Oh and one more thing; sometimes when I log in everything works just fine, so this whole thing seems a bit random.

I have installed ubuntu 10.04 lts -- I was wondering why it didn't start cupsd or something on boot?
I have installed the same ubuntu on another unit (same specs) with no problem on printing.... but this one (I'm swearing a lot now!) because it doesn't work... Been at this for 3 days in a span of one month -- and I started to think that this computer is hard headed GR!!
I'd like to bash it -- sorry but I'm really really annoyed -- to put it softly.
I'd like to know why it's not working as smoothly --
Currently I need to $sudo cupsd to make printing work every time I power on this computer.

I started the application from the terminal and accepted the 'User Agreement'. Skype then tried to log me on, and I got the following error and the app closed:

I use a P2P application (KMLDonkey), whose client (mlnet) can be either started automatically, at startup, or manually, after login. At installation, when prompted, I chose the former so as to minimise the number of clicks. However, with time I found it inconvenient because, of course, it would start downloading even though I haven't started its GUI yet or don't plan to use it at all.
What I would like is to click on 1 entry in the menu and have the client and, in sequence, the GUI start when I decide to use the application. Perhaps this would require a short script in /usr/local/bin? I've tried to write one, but failed miserably, as I'm not good at it. I use KDE, but the application or the desktop manager themselves are not important here, for the solution would apply to any application with a separate client/GUI.

After upgrading to squeeze I have now X Server 1.7.7 installed and it won't start.
When I try to run startx script, monitor gets blank for few seconds and then I get back to command prompt and no errors is displayed.
When I try the same as root, system locks up with blank screen and no functioning keyboard.
Initially I had kernel 2.6.28 which worked fine with earlier Lenny's X Server and Matrox P650 AGP video card. After upgrade I found, that Matrox P650 is not longer supported in new xorg and I swapped it to Matrox G550 AGP card.
Tried mga driver's many options, upgraded to kernel 2.6.37.2, tried with Matrox G200 PCI and Savage 4 Pro AGP card but without a success.
With kernel AGP support turned on I got both with Matrox G550 and Savage card an MTRR error: "error setting MTRR, Invalid argument (22)". Without AGP support in kernel, Matrox G550 gets initialised as PCI card and no errors and X still not working. Same with Matrox G200 PCI card.
With vesa driver the behavior is also the same and output at the end of Xorg.log file is almost the same.
So I understand, that this is some X server problem?
Nothing special in xorg.conf file and tried without it also.
End of the Xorg.0.log file:
>>
(II) MGA(0): YDstOrg is set to 0
(II) Loading sub module "fb"
(II) LoadModule: "fb"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libfb.so
