XEmacs 21.0-b47/pre4 "Uzbek Black" on Solaris 2.7 (fcs in a few months) spits out the following err many times doing X ops: xemacs-21.0: X Error of failed request: BadGC (invalid GC parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 60 (X_FreeGC) Resource id in failed request: 0x1140002a Serial number of failed request: 2176 Current serial number in output stream: 2236 Solaris 2.7 has a new Motif shared lib (libXm.so.4) and I'm told that this is for the new Motif 2.0. XEmacs 21.0 built (pre Solaris 2.7) against the old shared lib (libXm.so.3) does not have this problem. A few months ago we filed a bug internally for this problem against the Motif/X11 libs and the folks who evaluated it said it was a bug with XEmacs (to my surprise). They even supplied a suggested fix for XEmacs 20.4. I've applied it to 20.4 and 21.0 and it does indeed seem to fix the problem (at least the symptom goes away). I'll include it below. Anyways, if somebody who knows this area well could take a look, pls do so and let me know if I can help. cheers, glenn files modified: lwlib/xlwmenu.c, lwlib/xlwscrollbar.c *** xlwmenu.c.orig Fri Jun 12 21:28:08 1998 --- xlwmenu.c Fri Jul 10 15:43:33 1998 *************** *** 2803,2815 **** --- 2803,2833 ---- xgcv.fill_style = FillOpaqueStippled; xgcv.foreground = mw->menu.top_shadow_color; xgcv.background = mw->core.background_pixel; + /* xgcv.stipple = mw->menu.top_shadow_pixmap; gtb */ + #ifdef NEED_MOTIF + if (mw->menu.top_shadow_pixmap && + mw->menu.top_shadow_pixmap != XmUNSPECIFIED_PIXMAP) + xgcv.stipple = mw->menu.top_shadow_pixmap; + else + xgcv.stipple = 0; + #else xgcv.stipple = mw->menu.top_shadow_pixmap; + #endif /* NEED_MOTIF */ pm = (xgcv.stipple ?
