2006-10-19 19:58:31 Byron Shelden description Reporting here as this is where the bug report link took me. Immediate segmentation fault when trying to invoke: :~$ Xephyr :5 Segmentation fault :~$ if I try to specify screen geometry, I get an fpe instead. :~$ Xephyr -screen 1024x768 :5 Floating point exception :~$ In both cases the window does display for a split second before the crash. I can make it stay put a moment if I invoke in gdb, but since the executable was stripped, I can't provide anything more. Reporting here as this is where the bug report link took me.
