Hi,

When I try to run the newest xine and display it in CygwinX I get the 
following error. Is there any fix/workaround for that?

base@peter:~> xine
This is xine (X11 gui) - a free video player v0.99.3.
(c) 2000-2004 The xine Team.
X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for 
operation)
   Major opcode of failed request:  94 (X_CreateGlyphCursor)
   Value in failed request:  0x9a
   Serial number of failed request:  119
   Current serial number in output stream:  125

In this case, xine is run from a debian unstable installation 
("base@peter" below), that is fully up to date. This has been reproduced 
on two different such debian installations, and two CygwinX 
installations also. Further down, an FC1 installation ("myth@peter" 
below) running an older (0.99.2) version of xine does not exhibit these 
problems.

Further, running the 0.99.3-1 xine-ui on a vncserver ("base@peter" 
DISPLAY=:1) also works. That leads me to conclude that this is a problem 
with CygwinX. (Wild guess: CygwinX doesn't support X request #94 with a 
value of 0x9a??)

Any ideas how to run xine 0.99.3 and display it on CygwinX?

Peter
