[csw-users] kicad errors

[Aaron Wilson]

Hello,

I'm getting the following error when trying to run kicad on one of my 
workstations.

-bash-3.00# kicad
The program 'kicad' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 161 error_code 11 request_code 147 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.)
-bash-3.00#

I'm not sure how to interpret that message.

I have six identical Sun Ultra 20 machines and two V20z servers. It 
works on all of them except for one of the Ultra 20s.
I can ssh into the affected Ultra 20 from any of the other machines and 
run kicad fine. just not locally from that machine.

Anyone else have this problem?
