Bug#412056: koules: Fails if Composite enabled and ARGB visuals available

[Josh Triplett]

Package: koules
Version: 1.4-15
Severity: normal

If run on an X server with Composite enabled and thus ARGB visuals available,
koules will fail with the following error:

X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  146 (MIT-SHM)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  3 (X_ShmPutImage)
  Serial number of failed request:  308
  Current serial number in output stream:  309

Running "XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 koules" works around this problem.  koules
should handle the ARGB visual properly to avoid the need for this workaround.

Note that this error message also matches the one from #392983, which may have
stemmed from this problem, but the automatic detection of MIT-SHM in 1.4-15 does
not fix this problem.  "koules -M" does seem to work around this problem,
though, so #392983 may have actually had this as a cause rather than the
absence of the MIT-SHM extension.
