X Error Mac

shadowgate · Post by **shadowgate** » Sat Apr 09, 2011 10:35 pm

I'm running Snow Leopard on a fairly new Macbook Pro. Currently wine won't load any windows. I can't seem to find an answer to this problem even though there are a lot of linux info about this. it doesn't seem to work on mac.

This is what is output in Terminal:

X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 1 (X_CreateWindow)
Resource id in failed request: 0xe00004
Serial number of failed request: 8
Current serial number in output stream: 14

How did you get Wine? How are you trying to run it when you get the message? Have you installed the latest Xquartz (http://xquartz.macosforge.org/) which is an X server for OSX that Wine needs? There is an Apple version on there by default, but its not that great and can have issues.

Try installing XQuartz (http://xquartz.macosforge.org).

I installed wine via macports. and i do have the latest xquartz. Xquartz will run gimp and other applications like that. I am just trying to run winecfg.

Whoa, that's weird.

What version of Mac OS X are you running? Are you sure you followed the
right instructions for installing XQuartz? There are two different
versions of XQuartz: one for Leopard (10.5) and one for Snow Leopard (10.6).

I'm on SL, too, with XQuartz 2.6.1, and I just don't have your problem.
Something is seriously wrong with your setup, and I just can't place
what. I even run remotely (between my two Macs), and I still don't have
a problem. I'm sorry.

Try reinstalling XQuartz. That's about all I can think of at this point.

you re-logged in or rebooted after installing X?

have you launched X and used an xterm to try to run Wine instead of through Terminal?
