Hi,
[Please retain the CC to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
so that the Debian BTS has a record of your input]
This was reported by a Debian user.
Package: fvwm
Version: 2.5.12-4
Severity: normal
Hi
When run on a 1 BPP or 4 BPP display, FVWM crashes on startup with
the following output :
X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for
operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 91 (X_QueryColors)
Value in failed request: 0xff
Serial number of failed request: 8
Current serial number in output stream: 8
Excerpt from the ltrace :
XGetVisualInfo(0x8103fa0, 10, 0xbffff6f0, 0xbffff6dc, 0) = 0
malloc(4112) = 0x8105150
XQueryColors(0x8103fa0, 32, 0xbfffea20, 256, 0xb7f8fe61 <unfinished ...>
XUngrabServer(0x8103fa0, 0xb7fc7d28, 1, 0xb7cb098f, 0) = 1
XUngrabPointer(0x8103fa0, 0, 1, 0xb7cb098f, 0) = 1
XUngrabKeyboard(0x8103fa0, 0, 1, 0xb7cb098f, 0) = 1
+++ exited (status 1) +++
The fourth argument to XQueryColors() looks like someone upstream
has forgotten about the existence of black-and-white and 16-colour
modes.
This is a relatively new bug. Last year, I used FVWM on 1 BPP and
4 BPP displays with no problems.
