X server failed to launch

[pelya]

Seems like statically linked xkbcomp executable fails to run. I've already
seen reports of similar errors, although not often. Blame Lollipop for
that, because previously I've used dynamically-linked executable, which
worked everywhere except Lollipop.

I'll just compile xkbcomp as a shared library, and link it with main XSDL
app.

I think I'll publish a new version in two weeks or so.

Hi Pelya,
thank you for the effort on this app. I've some problem starting the
xserver.
I own a xt925 phone with CM10.1.3.
After the count down screen, the Xserver won't start; it print:

"Error: X server failed to launch
This may happen because of SELinux or because installation was corrupted"

SElinux isn't compiled. I've try to clean cache data and reinstall the
app, but I think something is wrong in my setup.
Looking at the logcat I can see some error about swap interval and
keyboard init:

Thank you very much for your answer.
Do you remember the last version with xkbcomp dynamically-linked?
I would like to make a try before your next release.

[pelya]

Look here for a build which was released before Lollipop:

You are right on the problem.
I've tried version 1.11.19 and it worked perfectly.
Thank you again for your support.

[pelya]

Hey do not close it, I did not fix it yet for new version.

[pelya]

I've published an update 1.11.22 to Google Play, which contains two
versions of xkbcomp, for Lollipop and pre-Lollipop devices, could you
please test it on your phone?

Hi Pelya,
i'm sorry but it doesn't work.
I get the same error as the previous version (after clean the cache and set the configuration to default).
If you like I can test the next build before publishing it on Google Play.

Thank you again for your effort.

[pelya]

Are you sure that version 1.11.19 works for you? It also contains
statically-linked executables, identical to those in version 1.11.21 you've
tried to use initially. The last version with dynamically-linked
executables is 1.11.18. And both versions of executables run fine inside
emulator and on ancient HTC Evo with Android 2.3, so I cannot reproduce the
problem.

Hi,
yes, the version is 1.11.19.
I've chosen your last build before the official release of lollipop.
I'm really sorry because at this time i haven't time to understand why it work. But xkbcomp build the keymap and my debian chroot with lxde run smooth on this android 4.2.2 (CyanogenMod 10.1.3)
When i'm back from this business travel i can try to build and fix the source until it work for me. For now I can only test your releases, and rollback to the one that work.
Let me know if I can do something to help you understand what happen.

Thank you.

[pelya]

I've reproduced the issue on that Android 2.3 device, apparently running
xkbcomp from inside the app is somehow different than running it from adb
shell.

Hey I'm encountering the same error on my Note 4. How do I get ADB logs for you? Tried current version and 1.11.19 with no luck.

[pelya]

It's a different error with Note 4, caused by it's new 64-bit architecture,
but I've fixed it just today. Could you please check an update 1.11.30 from
Google Play?
