Description

[srikanth Koneru]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS sun4u; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021013
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS sun4u; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021013

I have been using mozilla for more than a year on my dual head solaris workstation

I downloaded a build from oct 22,2002 and oct 23,2002. Both these builds
exhibited the following problem.

When i start mozilla on the first monitor, everything works fine. I can use both
mail and browser. When i set the display to the other monitor and then start
mozilla, the browser/mail window opens and closes immediately.  And it prints
some error detail on the terminal.


When i start mozilla browser i get the following mesages on the terminal when 
mozilla dies.

sunhome % mozilla&

X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  70 (X_PolyFillRectangle)
  Serial number of failed request:  1735
  Current serial number in output stream:  1752
X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  66 (X_PolySegment)
  Serial number of failed request:  1742
  Current serial number in output stream:  1753


And whe i try 
sunhome % mozilla -Mail&    

It fails with  the following

X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  70 (X_PolyFillRectangle)
  Serial number of failed request:  7908
  Current serial number in output stream:  7925
X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  66 (X_PolySegment)
  Serial number of failed request:  7915
  Current serial number in output stream:  7926



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set display to the second monitor(eg :- setenv DISPLAY sunhome:0.1)
2. Then start Mozilla
3.

Actual Results:  
mozilla window shows up and then mozilla immediately exits.

Expected Results:  
worked  :)  :)

I am running solaris 9 update 2. dual head. One on-board graphic card and the
other Raptor GFX. 

The display fails on the Raptor GFX.

It has been working for the past year and a half on both monitors. I update my 
build about once every 7-10 days.


I can provide any additional info if required. I will save the mozilla build
with me so i can provide info.

I'm not sure how your dual head factors into it, but the same errors messages
are reported in bug#175755 (and bug#175989), so this is maybe a dupe of one of
them?

I think this bug is different from bug#175755 (and bug#175989) in a way that I
can use Mozilla absolutely fine when i start on one monitor and the Problem
exists only when i start on the second monitor. The machine is the same So is
the Gtk lib(i have gtk-1.2.10), but the problem occurs only on my second
monitor. But as long as the backout of "Enabling GTK native theme support"
eliminates this problem I am ok with closing this as a dup. Is there a build
available with the fix in question backed out???

Srikanth, bug 175755 was resolved fixed last night. Could you try a nightly from
the 25th or later and see if you're still having a problem?

I downloaded the build today (2002102422) and the problem is gone. i am able to
use mozilla successfully on my machine on both montiors. So closing this bug as
dup of 175755.  I had no idea that this could be Gtk releated. But on hindsight
, it seems logical. Thanks for quick response. And sorry for filing a duplicate(
i thought i searched really well before filing this bug).
