Package: xfree86
Severity: critical
Tags: sid
Justification: breaks unrelated software
I had to search for long to adress this problem to the X.
When I start on my system vmware (locales dosn't mater) or audacity
(only with non US locales) the applications do not start and give a
error like:
Gdk-ERROR **: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
serial 881 error_code 2 request_code 45 minor_code 0
(The serial might be different.)
When I start such a application from a remote system everythink works.
The problem starts when I updated from the inoficial 4.3.0-0ds4 to the
new official packages.
The problem might be conected to fonts, ttfonts or something this kind.
See also Bug #234994 of the libgtk1.2 package. This seems to be the same
problem.

Hello,
libgtk1.2 was removed a few years ago and it's only in oldstable by
now, with no options to come back nor to be fixed (upstream abandoned
it long ago as well), so I'm re-closing this bug report.
If somebody has any concern about it and it's still causing problem
with newer versions of the involved software, please reopen it against
the current libraries/Xorg versions where this is still a problem.
Regards.
