Hi all It's a while since the last email where loch was failing with: loch$ ./loch The program 'loch' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'GLXBadContext'. (Details: serial 24 error_code 155 request_code 143 minor_code 5) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) loch$ Philip Schuchardt asked:
What video card do you have?
It's an Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller on a Dell Inspiron 620 laptop. Stacho asked:
Did you have loch working on your machine before? If you will compile loch in debug mode and run it from GDB, it should report more info about where in the code the problem is. cd loch make clean config-debug all gdb -se ./loch
OK I have done that. at the (gdb) prompt I type run and I get... (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) The program 'loch' received an X Window System error.

Program exited with code 01. I haven't used gdb before so I'll need some guidance on helping here. Also I have installed therion-viewer_0.5.0-1_i386.deb from Wookies site. It also crashes with the same error. Mike Lake
