This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!! Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have translators to read other languages for them. In XEmacs 21.4 (patch 4) "Artificial Intelligence" [Lucid] (i686-pc-linux) of Mon Jul 30 2001 on neo configured using `configure --with-x11 --with-toolbars=no --with-menubars=lucid --with-scrollbars=lucid --with-xface --with-ipv6-cname=no' Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: I have two machines on a local network running XFree 4.0.3. The first one is lucas, the second one neo. XEmacs runs on neo. If I display XEmacs on neo and use make-frame-on-display lucas:0, XEmacs hangs. If I display XEmacs on lucas and use ... neo:0, XEmacs hangs. Here is what I get on a console xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadFont (invalid Font parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 55 (X_CreateGC) Resource id in failed request: 0x1200017 Serial number of failed request: 153 Current serial number in output stream: 160 xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadFont (invalid Font parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 55 (X_CreateGC) Resource id in failed request: 0x1200018 Serial number of failed request: 154 Current serial number in output stream: 160 xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadFont (invalid Font parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 55 (X_CreateGC) Resource id in failed request: 0x120001d Serial number of failed request: 159 Current serial number in output stream: 160 Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0xa0)! xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadFont (invalid Font parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 55 (X_CreateGC) Resource id in failed request: 0x1200016 Serial number of failed request: 152 Current serial number in output stream: 160 Then, I kill (just with kill, not -9) XEmacs and get : Lisp backtrace follows: # bind (frame-being-created) make-frame(nil #<x-device on "neo:0.0" 0x28d1>) # bind (props connection type) make-frame-on-device(x "neo:0" nil) # bind (props display) make-frame-on-display("neo:0") # bind (command-debug-status) call-interactively(make-frame-on-display) command-execute(make-frame-on-display t) # bind (_execute_command_keys_ _execute_command_name_ prefix-arg) execute-extended-command(nil) # bind (command-debug-status) call-interactively(execute-extended-command) # (condition-case ... . error) # (catch top-level ...) The home is shared via NFS, both screen are running at 75 dpi and are using the same font server (and only use fonts from it). If I open a new display on the same machine, this works. If I try to display to an inexistant display, I get a regular error.

The problem appears on 21.4.3 and 21.4.4 (don't know for earlier release). lucas was formerly with XFree 3.3.6 and no font server and the problem was the same. Any other ideas ? Since I can run one xemacs per display, is there a way to attach them together to share the buffers ? Recent keystrokes: misc-user Recent messages (most recent first): Loading mail-abbrevs...
