I am ssh'ing into a Fedora Core 2 box (that is not up2date) from an
up2date Fedora Core 3 box and running emacs, displayed back on my FC3
box.  When I depress the left mouse button AND then move the mouse to
select some text, emacs crashes.  The terminal has the error--

[younga@mfg Test]$ emacs X protocol error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) on protocol request 38 [younga@mfg Test]$

Anybody seen this?  What more information should I gather (and how) to
diagnose the problem?

Thanks,
Andrew
