Xorg XFCE crashes when opening Evolution

TheJooomes · 03-25-2024, 06:24 PM

This started happening today. I turned on my computer and logged in and opened Evolution just to get booted back to the login screen. It's reproducable every time. Even tried restarting the computer. Here's .xsession-errors.old after a crash.

Code:

/etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc: 76: xrdb: not found
/usr/bin/iceauth:  creating new authority file /run/user/1000/ICEauthority

Launching Evolution through the terminal works fine, but produces no terminal output.
My GPU is a Radeon 350X OEM, using the radeon kernel module driver. XBPS updates were ran last night, but I cannot find how to show update history. No funny business like weird repos or held packages.

Any ideas?

I think you are on gentoo, but I hate to guess.
Looks like you have several issue on your system, don't know what happened before and we have no info about your system.
The message "xrdb: not found" indicates that the xrdb program, used to manage X Window System resources, is either not installed on your system or not in the search path.
Try to take a look.
About the "ICE I/O Error" messages indicate communication issues with the ICE (Inter-Client Exchange) protocol used for communication between desktop applications. You may try restarting the XFCE desktop or performing a new login to address these issues.
What was last thing you did before this restart?
Can you post emerge --info just to have some information?

Maybe next time post in "Distribution/Gentoo" can help to revive a pretty dead section of the forum

It's not Gentoo, it's Void.

And I figured out if I wait a bit for everything to finish loading, like all the icons in the system tray, then Evolution opens through the GUI perfectly fine. A wild guess, but maybe the resources you mentioned weren't loading before I tried opening Evolution. Which is really weird since this tower should be capable of loading a full DE in just a few seconds.

Well done, so now you can mark this post as resolved.
