I've been told that my error is different from the post where I have originally asked this questions. Since I still have this problem I would like to ask for help in this topic then. When I try to run rviz "Segmentation fault" error. I'm using 10.4 (running on vmware) and electric:

user@ubuntu:~/.rviz$ rosrun rviz rviz
[ INFO] [1321935622.778521758]: rviz revision number 1.6.6

Segmentation fault

I tried to remove lines in display_config - it didn't help. I removed both configs and got the same results. I was trying to restart workstation and turtlebot but it didn't help either. One or two times I had different error which actually did come up here as well:

user@ubuntu:~/.rviz$ rosrun rviz rviz -d 'rospack find turtlebot_interactive_markers'/config/interactive_markers.vcg

[ INFO] [1321935611.700409981]: RTT Preferred Mode is PBuffer.
The program 'rviz' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 21 error_code 9 request_code 55 minor_code 0)
  (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.)

Any ideas (other than remove files)? Thanks.

Are you running in a virtual machine?

Yes. Does it make any difference? Let me include this in the question.

Roman Burdakov ( 2011-11-22 01:28:49 -0600 )edit

3D support for virtual machines is quite limited and rviz uses Ogre. Maybe, it just won't work.

dornhege ( 2011-11-22 01:37:03 -0600 )edit

Is there a way to test it and find out if this is the case?

Roman Burdakov ( 2011-11-22 01:40:14 -0600 )edit

A minimal test is the output of glxinfo. It should say: direct rendering: Yes VirtualBox has experimental 3D support, I don't know about VM (and if rviz works in virtualbox).

dornhege ( 2011-11-22 02:48:04 -0600 )edit

I've run glxinfo and it has "direct rendering: Yes". Does anyone else has tried to run rviz on VMWare? Is this a problem?

Roman Burdakov ( 2011-11-23 14:14:24 -0600 )edit

Yeah but this doesn't even work on my machine natively (it has an Intel GMA945)

I can't get rviz to run reliably in a Parallels or VirtualBox VM. It definitely seems to be Ogre-related. I think you might be out of luck. :(

I've installed ogre separately and didn't have any problems with it. I'm running vmware with 2 cores and 2 gb of memory for it but I'm not getting even close to 100% utilization or memory usage. Ubuntu is 10.4. Not sure what else I can check.

Sorry for bringing it up again, but I've tried to used NOT virtual ubuntu and got different output(wxWidgets Error ) with the same result(Segmentation fault) :

user@ubuntu:~$ rosrun rviz rviz

Segmentation fault

However, I can start rviz from turtlebot itself(but it works very slow, especially when I was trying to build point cloud 2d data - it freezed) Any ideas on how I can solve this problem? Thanks.

I'm having the same problem. I was just reading http://www.ros.org/wiki/rviz/Troubleshooting -> 3.4. It says one could try running rviz with OGRE_RTT_MODE set to "Copy" or "FBO", instead of the default "PBuffer", but I don't know how. Do you? I'm on ros-electric, 10.04. using mesa openGL drivers.

Tom, thanks a lot for your comment. Now it works. I tried Copy and FBO modes before I was getting wxWidgets Error (my original post) and it didn't work out. When I removed video driver glxinfo started working, and I've got wxWidgets. Changing mode to Copy after and trying to run few times helped.

Roman Burdakov ( 2011-12-01 01:54:17 -0600 )edit

Glad it helped. So you can now help me by answering how exactly you did it here: http://answers.ros.org/question/3107/how-to-run-rviz-with-ogre_rtt_mode-set-to-copy-or . I for now ended up reverting to diamondback. Cheers.

tom ( 2011-12-01 03:04:14 -0600 )edit

I'm getting something like one-in-ten success rate when exporting OGRE_RTT_MODE to Copy or FBO, but it's still not coming up 100% of the time. Additional info here: https://code.ros.org/trac/ros-pkg/ticket/4830#comment:19
