[opensuse] BadDrawable crash in KDE4, but not FVWM/Gnome
Hello, I am having a strange X crash that seems to happen in OpenSuse 11.3 KDE4 only, but not on FVWM or Gnome, and no easy way to figure out a minimal example. Here's the situation. We are developing an in-house C application that relies on a semi-standard toolkit, HTK. That toolkit has built-in code which displays some windows using standard X libraries. This code runs perfectly fine on Gnome and on FVWM on my system. But under KDE4, it crashes with the following error message X Error of failed request: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 62 (X_CopyArea) Resource id in failed request: 0x5c00014 Serial number of failed request: 271 Current serial number in output stream: 415 This seems to happen at the time when it creates one of its windows. I tried to create a minimal example, but that didn't go well: I know exactly nothing about X windows programming, and trying to deal with the code base has thousands lines of code spread between 30 or so files. Everything works just fine on other window managers/Linux versions, so it seems to be specific to the KDE version of 11.3. There is an OpenOffice KDE crash filed against OpenSuse 11.3, with similar symptoms, but the suggested solution is switch off OO-KDE integration, which is of no help for me. Without a minimal example, I don't see how to sensibly file a bug. If anyone can suggest what things I could check for to isolate this problem, this would be much appreciated.
