| |
I just brought up 1.3.87 and have had a weird remote X problem. I had been running 1.3.84 stably for several days. When I went back to 1.3.84 the X problem disappeared.
Here is what happens.
I have a SUN running Solaris 2.3 etherneted to my linux box. I am running openwin 2.3 on the SUN
under 1.3.87: After an rsh to the linux box and setting the display to the sun, when I bring up Netscape 2.01, and then Netscape news, the Netscape stuff hangs with the following error messages:
netscape_2: X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 12 (X_ConfigureWindow) Resource id in failed request: 0x9090916 Serial number of failed request: 1627 Current serial number in output stream: 1648
netscape_2: X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) Major opcode of failed request: 0 () Serial number of failed request: 1628 Current serial number in output stream: 1648
Note that when I brought up 1.3.87, I removed the existing /usr/include and /usr/asm directories and made the links to the corresponding dirctories in the source tree. The make config did not do it automatically. I had been running from the installation which comes from RedHat 3.0.3.
The problem does not seem to exist when running Netscape at the console of the linux box. Also, it did not exist in 1.3.84
