Crash - Display Pixmap

Hi,

I have the following problem when using ConvexAVS 3.0 with an Iris
Indigo workstation as the graphics display. This problem has only started to
appear recently when doing things that used to work fine previously.

When I try do use the store frames feature of the Display Pixmap Module
the program crashes with the following error:

X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  62 (X_CopyArea) Serial number of
  failed request:  28456 Current serial number in output stream:  28471

When I use the Force X-Renderer option I do not experience it at all,
but I used to be able to use it with rglserver.

Where could my problem be lying : with the Convex side or the Indigo?
What can I do to find out? What could have caused it to suddenly start
crashing? 

Any answers or suggestions will be appreciated.

Regards,
Wayne

hello wayne,

i have seen the aforementioned error when using the gl rendering with
a true color visual. you may want to experiment with using different
visual ids. this can be done by setting an environment variable or
by an appropriate .avsrc entry, reference man avs. to figure out the
possible visuals use the xdpyinfo client.
