Package: x11-common Version: 1:7.0.10 Severity: important I just used aptitude to upgrade my debian/unstable box (the previous full update was on 2006-03-19), most notably this upgraded the X system to 7.0.10. And since then, many X programs are either crashing (mostly before even displaying anything), or reporting the same error code while functionning otherwise unaffected.
for instance : gqview, firefox, thunderbird, emacs... all crash on launch and report : (emacs :) X protocol error: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) on protocol request 151 (firefox/thunderbird :) The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'. (Details: serial 418 error_code 1 request_code 151 minor_code 23) gimp starts OK, but crashes when opening any kind of menu. While knode (and all kde/qt programs I tried so far) run without problem, though reporting the same errors a few times on startup : X Error: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) 1 Major opcode: 151 Minor opcode: 23 -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (760, 'unstable'), (751, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.16.4 -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
