Re: [swarm-hackers] fedora 11, tcl/tk 8.5

[Marcus G. Daniels]

Oh yeah, I ran into this before with Tk8.5 with an unrelated program.   
Workaround is to use a Tk built with --disable-xft.   Did not dig into 
BLT 2.4 to see what to do about it though.

Hi Cornell,

I encountered this problem with the current build of systemsim that I
tracked down to an interaction between Tk 8.5 and BLT 2.4 (RPM library
dependencies of the simulator).    The problem is if you select an SPE
item from the GUI tree (SPE0..SPE7), expand it, and select LS_Stats, the
simulator will abort with an X11 error about RenderCreatePicture.   A
workaround is to build a new Tk8.5 using the configure-time option
--disable-xft and point LD_LIBRARY_PATH at that.  The complaint from X:

systemsim % X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter
attributes)
 Major opcode of failed request:  153 (RENDER)
 Minor opcode of failed request:  4 (RenderCreatePicture)
 Serial number of failed request:  4293
 Current serial number in output stream:  4302

And here's a backtrace:
