Docking Station and KDE?

[John Gay <johngay@eircom.net>]

I've got a strange problem here.

I got the Creatures Docking Station from Linux Format magazine. I installed 
it on my system, which is Progeny updated with Ivan's KDE2.1 from 
kde.debian.net. This worked fine. I installed it on my daughters PC, which is 
similarly set-up, but it fails with the following error:

Welcome to Docking Station!
Gdk-ERROR **: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
  serial 17 error_code 1 request_code 145 minor_code 16

The only difference in setup between my daughters PC and mine is mine has 
been constantly updated from Progeny's BETA testing days and hers was 
installed from the boxed set.

I recently bought 5 PC's for a school project I'm working on. I installed 
these with the Progeny boxed set including the KDE2.0 that is included. When 
I installed Docking Station on this, it worked fine, but konqueror fails to 
render html, this was an old bug. I did an apt-get install task-kde to update 
the KDE packages, but this broke KDE. I am currently using dselect to try to 
fix this, but I decided to try Docking Station and it is now broke too. I've 
tried to find any packages relating to gdk, but these are all the latest on 
my daughters PC. Can anyone shed any more light on this, as my Daughter is 
raging that Creatures works on my system but not hers.

Cheers,
