Description D. V. Wiebe 2006-03-04 00:35:48 UTC
Version:           1.3.0_devel (using KDE KDE 3.5.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 3.4.5 
OS:                Linux

Slackware-current recently upgraded to KDE 3.5.1 and qt 3.3.5.  After recompiling kst against these, kst is unable to render plots.  When kst tries to render a plot, I get a stream of X Errors (see below), and nothing is drawn.  I've tested this with 1.2.0dr1, 1.2.0, 1.3.0_devel (SVN 515492) and all have the same problem.  Plotting used to work fine with the 1.2.0 versions on the Slackware 10.2 configuration of KDE 3.4.2 and qt 3.3.4.

I'm not sure this is a kst bug or just a misconfiguration with slackware's KDE, but this is the only application which demonstrates this behaviour.

kst console output follows:

This is the same problem experienced by debian unstable a while back.

See this thread:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=329231

The bug was in kst and dealt with the following:

--- quoted from Josh Metzler -----

"Finally, I ran kst under gdb with qt-x11-free-dbg installed and set a 
breakpoint at QPixmap::init just before creating a plot.  After lots of 
continues with valid parameters (w or h is 0 and depth is 0, or depth is 
-1 or 24 on my display), I got one with depth set to 8.  This doesn't 
cause a problem here because w = h = 0, so a null pixmap of depth 8 is 
created.  When it is resized, however, it causes a problem.  With the old 
qt behavior, an invalid depth was ignored when creating a null pixmap.

So, the bug is in lines 84, 124, 389 of kst/kst/kst2dplot.cpp where it 
specifies a depth of 8 when creating the KstBackBuffer.  It should 
probably use the default of -1 and let qt create a QPixmap of the 
appropriate bit depth."

---- end quote ------

So, not sure if this is related.  For what it's worth, I'm using KDE 3.5.1 and 
Qt 3.3.4 on Kubuntu without problems.

Doing a quick grep, I don't see any place that a QPixmap is getting 
initialized with an invalid depth...  I wonder if there is some other change 
in Qt 3.3.4 --> 3.3.5 that enforces a more strict behaviour that we are 
violating somewhere?
