Abiword - Error:BadLength
« on: April 27, 2016, 03:10:11 PM »
hi,
i have installed abiword.tcz on my TinyCore 3.8.13 but it doesn't work:
Code: [Select]
$ abiword

(abiword:8050): Gdk-ERROR **: The program 'abiword' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length erro'.
  (Details: serial 476 error_code 16 request_code 72 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 GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment
   variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
Trace/breakpoint trap

why it say so?

Try Xorg?
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

Oh, try a different gtk2 theme in that case.

If you can reproduce with gtk-demo's color chooser (from gtk2.tcz), would be good to report the bug to gtk.
