It's a known bug according to the nedit developers. A workaround also exist in cvs. Three options are available and I have verified the first two of them.
* nedit -xrm '*visualID: default' * XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 nedit * compile nedit from the latest CVS sources -- nedit does not start https://launchpad.net/bugs/57808 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
