Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users. ** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to software-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1177606 Title: software-center crashes on startup with X error Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When trying to launch software-center I get: (software-center:11090): Gdk-ERROR **: The program 'software-center' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 1186 error_code 9 request_code 62 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 Running Gnome 3.8 under 13.04, software-center seemed to run fine in Unity under 12.10.
