Package: xnest
Version: 2:1.1.1-15
Severity: important

When I run fluxbox as a different user on my nested X server it crashes
when the server is on a different virtual desktop.

The error it produces is:
X error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request: 73 (X_GetImage)
  Serial number of failed request: 2772
  Current serial number in output stream: 2772
X connection to :1.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

The steps to reproduce this bug are:
Xnest -ac :1&
su -c "fluxbox -display :1" different_user

Ofcourse make sure the nested X server is on a different virtual desktop
when executing the second command. I am running this from fluxbox and I
don't know if that is a requirement for this bug.

Seems to work as well for me in current sid (which is now at 1.6.3).
Marking as fixed in the version you reported working.  Thanks!
