Hello,
asking Google for this problem just leaded to hints of some broken X resources but I have no real clue what might have caused the failure of at least three important applications which I'm running on a laptop with an up to date testing. I never faced similar problems with three other machines running more or less the same stuff.
$ emacs X protocol error: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) on protocol request 45 Fatal error (6).
$ xdvi X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 45 (X_OpenFont) Value in failed request: 0x1c00002 Serial number of failed request: 20 Current serial number in output stream: 21
$ gv Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset
The problem is that this Laptop is the machine I installed most recently and I want to share this obervations with other developers just to prevent that something goes really wrong in Sarge ...
So the question is, which information do I have to provide to track down this problem.
Kind regards
Andreas.
