[Bug 476760] Re: The program 'openshot' received an X Window System error

 

Same problem here with 2.2

Started in Ubuntu Studio 10.04 and then 10.10RC
I'm trying out Arch Linux now (Metacity) and the same thing happend - bummer.

Strangely (or not) it still works for me in the Arch root account.

I never had these problems (in Ubuntu) with earlier versions of OpenShot
(I think I was using the PPA for the past year).

For me this is so unfortunate. 1.1, 1.3 were so good but now version 2
has this problem for me as well as seemingly running slower than older
versions on both the Ubuntu and Arch installs.


My output;

--------------------------------
   OpenShot (version 1.2.2)
--------------------------------
Process no longer exists: 11296.  Creating new pid lock file.

The program 'openshot' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 53 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.)

Bug description:
I installed 0.9.43(through PPA) some time ago on a freshly installed Ubuntu 9.10 Beta.
It crashed immediatly with the X Window System error.
I today upgraded to 0.9.52 experimental through PPA.
Encounterd the missing /usr/lib/libmlt++.so.2 bug as descibed by Pablo.
Finally started openshot, but with the same crash.
I deconfigured compiz and configured metacity.
Started openshot again but it crash again :-(

See console output below:
