[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#564694: xfdesktop4: Crash when moving desktop icons on secondary screen

[S. Raase]

Package: xfdesktop4
Version: 4.6.1-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

I am using the NVidia driver with two X screens (:0.0 primary, VGA and :0.1 secondary, internal notebook display).

When I drag a desktop icon, a frame appears showing where the icon will end. If I drag this frame around and back to the place where the icon is (i.e. "I do not actually want to move it"), on the secondary screen (:0.1), xfdesktop crashes. It does not crash on the primary screen (:0.0).

The log entry in ~/.xsession-errors is:

The program 'xfdesktop' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
  (Details: serial 6918 error_code 8 request_code 142 minor_code 2)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Best Regards
