Description of problem: rdesktop crashes with the following error: X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 78 (X_CreateColormap) Value in failed request: 0x0 Serial number of failed request: 7 Current serial number in output stream: 8 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rdesktop-1.4.1-3.2.1 How reproducible: Just run rdesktop (or call through tsclient). eg: rdesktop 10.31.1.13. Using -C flag doesn't change a thing. Additional info: This is a clean install of FC5. Tried as unprivileged user as well as root.
j. Busink: just curious, is your machine a dual head?
Yes it it.
I'm getting this same issue with rdesktop and qemu (dual-head). I've seen others that have the same issue but I have no idea whats causing it. I'm running the binary nvidia drivers, I'm going to do some testing and see if I can figure out whats going on.
switching to twinview instead of xinerama fixed it for me. this issue is related to the binary nvidia drivers. after some testing I noticed the same (or similar) error messages when running other programs as well (most notably glxgears). Thus this has nothing to do with rdesktop at all. I recommend closing this bug.
I'm seeing the same behavior.
I had this problem on RHEL4 using the Nvidia binary drivers and TwinView. I noticed that it started right at the same time I used up2date to update to xorg-x11-6.8.2-1.EL.13.25.1 and friends. I reinstalled the same version of the Nvidia driver (I'm using AMD64/EM64T version 1.0-8756) and the error went away.
Some new drivers are out, I haven't had time to test them though... http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html
Fedora Version: FC6 Clean install rdesktop version: 0:1.4.1-4 nvidia driver: xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-legacy-1.0.7184-2.lvn6 X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 78 (X_CreateColormap) Value in failed request: 0x290 Serial number of failed request: 7 Current serial number in output stream: 8 Running a quad head so twinview is not an option nor is the open source driver. I never saw this bug in FC5.
Fedora Core 6 is no longer maintained. Is this bug still present in Fedora 7 or Fedora 8?
