Well, I know nothing about keymaps implementations but somehow libkeybinder believes your keymap still changes regularly! In any case, I don't know how I could fix their own bug, so I'll rewrite xvd with something else... when I can... 2014-05-28 14:11 GMT+01:00 Julian Gilbey : > Sorry for slow

This is indeed quite surprising! If you disable your keymaps and just use one of them, does it still significantly leak / does xfsettingsd still leak, too? The trace clearly indicates that the leak occurs precisely when the keymap is changed -- libkeybinder probably forgets to clean up the data it

Hi Julian, Do you use multiple keymaps (e.g. switching keyboard layouts) throughout the day? Do you have a particular kind of keyboard, or plug a USB keyboard to your MacBook? Thanks! 2014-05-14 14:38 GMT+01:00 Julian Gilbey : > OK, here's the valgrind output - vanilla xfce4-volumed with keybi

So it does leak just as much for you! If you're ok with it I'll write a couple of other patches disabling notifications, keybinding, volume control... I'm very surprised that it's not just libasound leaking! Thanks again for all this help. 2014-05-09 13:57 GMT+01:00 Julian Gilbey : > I've applie

Very interesting! Julian, may I also ask you to attach the output of #cat /proc//maps and #cat /proc//maps ? It will tell the whole list of libraries that are opened by each app. 2014-05-06 10:56 GMT+01:00 Julian Gilbey : > Hi Steve, > > Thanks for the explanation. > > I've just come back in, o

Julian, thanks for the report! Could I please ask you to check if this happen when: - using Alsa as a backend and vanilla xfce4-volumed - using PA as a backend and vanilla xfce4-volumed - using PA as a backend and xfce4-volumed-pulse Understanding when the leak occurs will help us to identify whi

First of all, type 'ps aux | grep pulseaudio' to verify whether you use Pulseaudio or GStreamer. If you use Pulseaudio and used GStreamer before, it's probably good to clear your config, remove xfce4-volumed and install xfce4-volumed-pulse instead (courtesy of Lionel Le Folgoc). Be careful that xvd
