Nexuiz won't start : [X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) ]

[UdZq3tDn]

Binary package hint: nexuiz

Nexuiz occasionally fails to start when clicking the icon in the Applications menu.

There doesn't appear to be a pattern for when it fails.

Whenever I try and run Nexuiz from the command line the following occurs :

----------------

I'm unsure whether this is a Nexuiz or X problem so feel free to change the package on this bug report.

Cheers,

Hi,

for me that sounds like a Xorg issue, but nexuiz triggering it.
Could you provide your Xorg.log when this happens, including some info like Xorg version, Driver name and Version and Nexuiz version (I guess 2.4.2?).

Marking as invalid.

Error no longer occurs on new installs.

Must have been a one off.
