Comment 9 for bug 581032

Hi James,
You're right- I goofed. Sorry for wasting your time.
I had a file name collision between the original patch and my hacked version. Attached is the correct (and renamed) file.

Two other notes-You will also have to install xserver-xorg-core_1.7.6-2ubuntu8_i386.deb which will be in the same directory as xserver-common_1.7.6-2ubuntu8_all.deb:
  $ sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-core_1.7.6-2ubuntu8_i386.deb

and you will need to reboot (restarting the X server will probably work).

There are other .deb files created by the dpkg-buildpackage step, but I did not install them. I don't know it that will cause other problems, but I haven't seen any yet.

Finally- I did try to build the simple_popup program that Yves used to report the problem, but the program would not run for me. I tried both before and after installing the patched xserver debs. The run time error I get is:

$ ./simple_popup
Warning: XmManager ClassInitialize: XmeTraitSet failed

Error: attempt to add non-widget child "DropSiteManager" to parent "simple_popup" which supports only widgets

Note that I only installed the lesstif package and not Motif.

Hope this post corrects enough of my mistakes that others can get something work.
