Package: zenity
Version: 2.6.2-2
Severity: important
I have tried many of the different zenity options, such as --warning,
--error, --info, etc and they all cause this error to come up:
lutya:~> zenity --warning --text="Hello?"
(zenity:21289): Gtk-WARNING **: Invalid icon size -1
The program 'zenity' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
(Details: serial 163 error_code 3 request_code 20 minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the
gdk_x_error() function.)
I am able to use the --list option though, as in this:
zenity --list --radiolist --title="Choose which network setup to use" \
--text="Select network configuration." --column "Use" --column "Name" \
TRUE "Work with NATing" \
FALSE "Home" \
FALSE "Miscellaneous" \
FALSE "Use current configuration"
