Hi,

I've always run Thunderbird remotely by telneting from
my Ultra 20 M2 into a local sparc machine and running
Thunderbird (sparc) from there using the U-20 as the X display
and this has always worked fine. After I installed Nevada build
89 on my U-20 I can no longer run Thunderbird remotely.
I get the following error message:

"
% telnet 192.168.1.100
sparc2 > setenv DISPLAY 192.168.1.101:0
sparc2 > thunderbird
The program 'thunderbird-bin' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 14 error_code 3 request_code 159 minor_code 2)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
"

Don't know if this is a X related problem in the newer X server in
Nevada or a thunderbird problem. I get the same error regardless of
whether I use 'ssh -X' or telnet (and setting DISPLAY). I have tried an
old Thunderbird ver. 1.007 as well as the newest 2.0.0.14 and I get the
same error.

On my earlier OS on the same U-20 (Solaris 10, 11/06)
I did not have this problem. Logging in from a Linux machine to
the Sparc machine does not give this thunderbird error.

Any help would be appreciated.
