Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rdesktop
On my hardy x86-64 machine, I attempted to use rdesktop with the
following options (as I do on my gutsy x86 box):
rdesktop -n my-machine -k en-us -g workarea -D -K -z target-machine
After, experiencing an error, I isolated the problem down to this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /usr/bin/rdesktop -g workarea serverhostname
Autoselected keyboard map en-us
X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for
operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 1 (X_CreateWindow)
Value in failed request: 0x0
Serial number of failed request: 41
Current serial number in output stream: 52
The manpage for rdesktop provides this information about the -g flag:
Desktop geometry (WxH). If geometry is the special word "workarea", the
geometry will be fetched from the extended window manager hints property
_NET_WORKAREA, from the root window.
This is a "fresh" hardy alpha4 amd64 install + all updates to date.
