bug#4742: 23.1.50; emacs -Q crashes on GNU/Linux

[=C3=93scar?= Fuentes]

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

emacs -Q crashes on startup with this message:

X protocol error: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for
operation) on protocol request 91

If emacs is invoked with

-q --no-site-file --no-splash

it starts okay. This is very odd, as -Q is documented as the equivalent
of those options.

bug#4742: 23.1.50; emacs -Q crashes on GNU/Linux

In fact, now -Q is equivalent to -q --no-site-file --no-splash, plus
ignoring X resources. From etc/NEWS:

* Startup Changes in Emacs 23.2

** Command-line option -Q (--quick) now also disables loading X resources.
Note however that this does not affect Lucid or Motif widgets, if you
are using those toolkits.  On Windows, this option causes Emacs to
ignore Registry settings, though environment variables set on the
Registry are still honored.

This is likely related to your problem.

There is no .Xresources nor .Xdefaults file on my home directory. 

/etc/X11/Xresources/x11-common is pretty trivial:

#ifdef COLOR
*customization: -color
#endif

! make Xaw (Athena widget set) clients understand the delete key
! this causes problems with some non-Xaw apps, use with care
! *Text.translations: #override ~Shift ~Meta <Key>Delete: delete-next-character()

How about /etc/X11/app-defaults or /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults?
Do you have any of these environment variables set:
XAPPLRESDIR, XUSERFILESEARCHPATH, XFILESEARCHPATH, XENVIRONMENT?
How about /usr/lib/X11/Xresources?

Also, check out
% xrdb -query

Make sure all these places aren't setting any X resource that applies to Emacs.

Most of the items you mention are not defined. The only one that

[Jan Djärv]

Well, 91 is X_QueryColors so I guess the xrdb setting are setting something 
Emacs does not.  I should be able to track it down with this info.

bug#4742: 23.1.50; emacs -Q crashes on GNU/Linux

[Jan Djärv]

Hi.

It was the scroll bar background.  Emacs tried to allocate a color for pixel 
-1, which is args out of range as the X error said.  Now fixed.

From: ofv@wanadoo.es (Óscar Fuentes)
To: emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org
Subject: 23.1.50; emacs -Q crashes on GNU/Linux
Date: Sat, 17 Oct 2009 06:37:32 +0200
Message-ID: <87fx9izldf.fsf@telefonica.net>


Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

emacs -Q crashes on startup with this message:

X protocol error: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for
operation) on protocol request 91

If emacs is invoked with

-q --no-site-file --no-splash

it starts okay. This is very odd, as -Q is documented as the equivalent
of those options.
