Hi all... I finally got Xvnc to compile on SunOS 4.1.4. It looks great...
And it runs much faster than X for opening a window from across the country.
However, for some reason it still doesn't work with all of my X clients.
In particular, IslandDraw. When I try to run IslandDraw, I get the
following error:
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 62 (X_CopyArea)
Serial number of failed request: 135
Current serial number in output stream: 136
This is the same error I got when I tried to display IslandDraw on the MI/X
free PC X server, which was what motivated me to move to Xvnc in the first
place... But now I find that it has the same problem!!
Is this a known bug with X_CopyArea under Xvnc? Does anyone know any
workarounds? If I can't run IslandDraw, I am in deep doo-doo.
Thanks,
-Mike
P.S. IslandDraw displays fine on normal X servers on Suns.
