TextEdit.app problems X11

Hi

I am have installed GNUstep and I am interested to install
GNUstep  
applications to know how they work and later on learn how to
program  
in Objective-c using GNUstep.

I have installed TextEdit.app.
The applications lunches but then the menus are draw but no
text is  
found in the menus. Either all dialog boxes are empty. The
Xterm  
terminal shows these kind of lines everytime a event call is
made to  
the menu or dialog box.

"TextEdit[770] X-Windows error - RenderBadPicture
(invalid Picture  
parameter)"
on display: :0.0
type: 0
serial number: 2688
request code: 153


What is wrong here and how to solve that?
I am running Xorg 7.2

Best

Pedro

You will need to provide more information than this.
Is this the first error you get or is there anything else
before that?
Could you please run the TextEdit application with gdb (eg
openapp --debug TextEdit) and set a break point on
XGErrorHandler and report back from where this gets called?

Thank you
Fred

You also need to run in gdb like this:

run --GNU-Debug=XSynchronize

otherwise it will break in the wrong location. I also wonder
what  
backend you are using (or how you installed GNUstep).

Depends on the backend used -- if it's the art backend for
instance,
this could be a SHM issue (there's a default to tell the
backend to
not use shm that you could try).
