The "Installation" file is at the end, after the `gdb' typescript. This happens consistently on my laptop, which has a 24bpp 800x600 display. `gdb xemacs' `set args -geometry 80x35' `run' [ Options | Customize | Face... ] default, STATE, show all, INS, type X, class color, bg dark, ... somewhere in here it will crash when I click a button. The graphical buttons (Set, Save, ...) have vertical stripes through them. It looks like it's not working right for 24bit color. Here's a picture: Here's the `gdb' output, followed by the "Installation" file, and a typescript of the crash run without gdb, to get the lisp stack trace. I also ran a `gdb' "where" on that core file. Hope this helps someone who knows XEmacs inside and out to locate the problem!
