X: attempt to access private resource?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Is this an X bug, an ssh bug, or what?

I often ssh with X11 forwarding into other systems, and
with depressing regularity I get X errors the first time
I run gtk apps like gedit, synaptic, etc:

 The program 'synaptic' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)'.
  (Details: serial 442 error_code 10 request_code 148 minor_code 5)
  (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.)

If I immediately try to run the exact same app a second time, it
works perfectly.

Anyone seen anything like this? Anyone know what is going on?

My host system I am running ssh from is always a fedora 8 system
because that is what is on my desktops, so I can't say if it
happens with other kinds of hosts or not.

Sometimes I don't get that error right away, but the app will come
up and things like icons will be missing, then I'll get a similar
error a little later (perhaps when trying to popup some dialog).

Should I be trying ssh -Y instead of ssh -X (which my fingers type
from reflex)? I have to say I have no idea what the man page is
talking about with the difference between -X and -Y.
