X Window System error

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi Everyone,

I just installed new 4.2 Comsol, when I try to launch it the windows disappears in 1second!

with this message :

he program 'SWT' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was '255'.
(Details: serial 5595 error_code 255 request_code 143 minor_code 17)
(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.)


I follow this topic, but it does not work..

Anyone else has this problem and could help me...

Regards.

same problem here on ubuntu 10lts.
the line "graphics.rendering.2drend=swing" is removed from the config after the startup-crash. it works on an other machine also running ubuntu 10lts.
