Public bug reported: Source package:
jer...@soushi:~$ which rox /usr/bin/rox jer...@soushi:~$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/rox rox-filer: /usr/bin/rox 1) jer...@soushi:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 9.10 Release: 9.10 2) jer...@soushi:~$ apt-cache policy rox-filer rox-filer: Installed: 1:2.5-1build1 Candidate: 1:2.5-1build1 Version table: *** 1:2.5-1build1 0 500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/universe Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3) When using IceWM for exemple I want 'rox --pinboard=test' to take over my desktop and to show a 'home' icon 4) What happened instead: jer...@soushi:~$ rox --pinboard=test jer...@soushi:~$ The program 'rox' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter)'. (Details: serial 600 error_code 5 request_code 20 minor_code 0) (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.) Possible solution: update rox to 2.10, it's now at 2.5, see bug #432614. Rox is also compiled with GTK 2.10.3 while Karmic has GTK 2.18.3, maybe that could be a cause too: jer...@soushi:~$ rox --version ROX-Filer 2.5 Copyright (C) 2005 Thomas Leonard.
