Dear All:
I am running some GUI functions in linux environment, they runs fine,
however I constantly get this kind of message in R console:
Warning: X11 protocol error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Is there a way to repress it? Or am I doing something wrong here.. it
does not interfere with the running of fucntion though.
Thanks

Upgrade your version of R.
You have not provided sufficient details, but if I had to guess, you are
either running RCmdr or using other tcl/tk based widgets.
If correct, the error message that you are seeing was fixed back in R
2.4.0:
o The X11() device no longer produces (apparently spurious)
'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)' warnings when run from
Rcmdr.
I'm digging on a past message, where you said that message was fixed in R
2.4.0.
However, I'm using R 2.7.1 (under Kubuntu Hardy Heron, with tcl and tk
version 8.4) and still experience the same message with Rcmdr.
For reproduction, this happens when using (before loading Rcmdr):
options(Rcmdr=list(console.output=TRUE)).
In addition to this error message, I also get sometimes this one (repeated
17 times at once):
Warning in structure(.External("dotTclObjv", objv, PACKAGE = "tcltk"), class
= "tclObj") :
X11 protocol error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)

Hi Adrian,
Apologies for the delay in my reply. I am at useR in Dortmund and
between travel this weekend, the sessions and some residual jet lag, I
am just getting caught up on e-mails.
I am cc:ing John Fox (who is also here) as the author of Rcmdr, to see
if he might have any ideas on this.
I also searched the list archives to see if there was anything recent
that was relevant. The most recent post appears to be from John in
August of last year:
http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e2/help/07/08/23742.html
and suggests that there may be some issue at play here subsequent to the
presumptive R 2.4.0 fix.
I will defer to John on any more definitive comments.
Regards,
Marc Schwartz
