I am running Xorg from pkgsrc (both 2006-Q1 and current give me this
problem) on amd64 with an ATI X800 card. The display is technically
fine: I can display a root window without any problem. However, all
X applications crash with this error:
X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for op=
erati
on)
Major opcode of failed request: 1 (X_CreateWindow)
Value in failed request: 0x20
Serial number of failed request: 35
Current serial number in output stream: 43
Thus, the window manager dies and then X dies. X is not usable,
obviously. I cannot find out what this means nor what to do about it,
but I would hate to have to dump NetBSD because of this problem. I am
very impressed with its performance and really want to keep using it.
Again, the display itself is fine; the problem I doubt is with my
xorg.conf or hardware. This is something with X itself. Please help
me!
Thanks a lot,
