hi there: I used to love xemacs and I'm slightly annoyed by the fact that it's getting worse and worse. During the last two weeks it has crashed as many times using the find command - now some superfluous fancy window. Simply freezes consistently as soon as I search a second time and move the window. Error messages are: xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadGC (invalid GC parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 70 (X_PolyFillRectangle) Resource id in failed request: 0x404a9964 Serial number of failed request: 143031 Current serial number in output stream: 143049 xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadGC (invalid GC parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 70 (X_PolyFillRectangle) Resource id in failed request: 0x404a9964 Serial number of failed request: 143034 Current serial number in output stream: 143049 Xlib: sequence lost (0x32ebc > 0x22ec9) in reply type 0x0! xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadGC (invalid GC parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 74 (X_PolyText8) Resource id in failed request: 0x404a9964 Serial number of failed request: 143036 Current serial number in output stream: 143049 and so on. This is xemacs 21 from debian testing. thanks, Gerald
