I have a problem with applications crashing. Xterm will launch and run ok,
but any attempt to mouse select text will cause an immediate crash with
this output on the console:
xterm: warning, error event received:
X Error of failed request: BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 18 (X_ChangeProperty)
Atom id in failed request: 0x17f
Serial number of failed request: 131
Current serial number in output stream: 133
If I attempt to run a gui app like wish, it won't launch and produces this
error:
%wish8.4
X Error of failed request: BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 18 (X_ChangeProperty)
Atom id in failed request: 0x1a5
Serial number of failed request: 12
Current serial number in output stream: 15
I'm running 5.3 on the server and desktop, with X forwarded over an ssh
tunnel. I don't experience this issue when performing the same operation
but with a Microsoft Windows/XWin32 desktop. Is this an issue with the
X.org Xserver on the 5.3 workstation? Let me know what other detail I can
provide if needed.
cheers,
joel
