Description of problem: Pitivi doesn't start with the default options, when starting pitivi in the terminal one gets the following error message: "The program 'pitivi' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 15 error_code 3 request_code 3 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) " Adding the --sync flag makes pitivi run. By extension this means them menu entry of pitivi doesn't actually launch the application. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.10.1-5 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install pitivi 2. open terminal, launch pitivi 3. Add --sync flag to make pitivi run Actual results: Doesn't run, runs with --sync flag Expected results: Should run with default options. Menu entry should launch application
I've added a workaround in 0.10.1-6 (which is building now). Has this been reported upstream or have you checked to see if there's a fix in pitivi's CVS?
