Bug#69935: xdvi crashes when displaying on an IRIX Xserver

[Jens Schmalzing <jens@tac.dk>]

Package: tetex-bin
Version: 1.0.7-2
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

when I try to view a dvi file on my IRIX 6.5 workstation with xdvi
running on my notebook, xdvi crashes immediately with

  X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  55 (X_CreateGC)
  Serial number of failed request:  47
  Current serial number in output stream:  62

This problem seems obscure enough to me to file under the lowest
possible priority, but maybe it's interesting to somebody.

Regards, Jens.
