X error

  1. Hi everyone,



    I am trying to run Abstract Generator 5.4 and was having some trouble
    with the X display and was hoping someone might have come across the
    error ....



    Mapping /blah/blah/abstract.dxl...done.

    Mapping /blah/blah/acl503.epll.

    Load the resource file

    '/blah/blah/pillar.vr'.

    An error has occurred. The following chain of information is
    available:

    error 1: /Return/

    message: X error: BadAccess (attempt to access private
    resource denied); serial: 403; major: 131; minor: 1; resource:
    11534345;



    Until last night I was able to run it after vnc-ing into another
    server and then ssh-ing into the server i work on. But now I am
    getting the same error again. And sometimes the window pops up and
    dies.


    Any ideas? There's obviously some display setting that is screwing
    things up.. but I have no clue what it might be...

  2. Hi Mallika,

    It's not something I've seen before, but here are a few things you could try
    which may help:

    * Make sure your display is set correctly and that you've done an 'xhost
    +mallika' command on your local display machine (assuming your username is
    mallika).

    * Try running it natively on the machine (ie. not using VNC). If this works,
    try to use the same display settings for your vnc session ('xdpyinfo' should
    give you the resolution and colour depth of the display).

    * Try different VNC settings - 8-bit, 16-bit, 24-bit, different resolutions,
    etc.

    Other than that, I'm afraid that's all I can think of. Neither the
    common-lisp error nor the X error are particularly indicative of the problem,
    sadly.

    Best regards,
    Graeme.
