Bug#366355: libx11: ssh -X between Sarges XF86 and Sids Xorg7 broken
Package: libx11
Severity: important
>From http://blog.windfluechter.net/?q=node/114
Ok, for some days now I'm running on Xorg7. The transition went fairly well,
but there's still one problem left. When I'm connecting via ssh -X from my
notebook to my server, I get this:
(base)windfluechter:/ij$ nedit bin/get_packages bin/store_packages3.py
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 70 (X_PolyFillRectangle)
Serial number of failed request: 297
Current serial number in output stream: 307
(base)windfluechter:/ij$
The server (windfluechter) runs on Sarge and has xbase-clients installed
(XFree86), whereas the notebook runs on Sid with new Xorg7. The XForwarding
is broken since the upgrade to Xorg7. It doesn't matter whether I use ssh -X
or ssh -Y. The result is the same. Is that a Xorg7 bug or a ssh bug? Any
hints?
Regards,
Ingo
