Re: error, with 16bit patch, v7



I love answering my own posts within 10 minutes. Yes, this appears to be the problem when starting a 16 bit rdesktop within an xserver running at 24/32 bit color

alright, when I try to connect, (./rdesktop <servername>) it bombs, and it seems to be related to me moving the mouse (although i am not positive on this)

Connection successful.
Server issued licence.
XIO:  fatal IO error 14 (Bad address) on X server ":0.0"
      after 796 requests (794 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

The first time it happened at the same time I moved the mouse...I wasn't sure about it so I tried it again, and it did it again whyen I moved the mouse. Then I tried one more time and did not touch the mouse, and it crashed again. I repeated without moving the mouse, and it crashed again, albeit faster this time. I am almost positive the machine I am connecting to is an nt 4 terminal server, not win2k.

Might this be cause by running in 24 bit color over 16 bit color? I can give it a quick change and test here.
