Bug#883707: ace-freecell crashes on KDE desktops

[Markus Koschany]

Hello Esa,

you were the last upstream contact for ace-of-penguins hence I would
like to forward a Debian bug report to you. I can confirm that
ace-freecell cannot be started on KDE desktops. The error message is:

X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  73 (X_GetImage)
  Serial number of failed request:  25
  Current serial number in output stream:  25

Interestingly the other games work and when I run one of them first and
then try to start ace-freecell, the game works without any issues as well.

So there might be some missing initialization in ace-freecell which the
other games do correctly or maybe it is something completely different.
I can reproduce this behavior only on KDE, so it might also be some kind
of KDE bug.

Do you have any ideas how this issue can be fixed?

Regards,

Markus
