nedit crashes Xserver under Mandriva 2007

[Eric Bouyoux]

Hi,

nc -xrm "*visualID: 0x23" => works.
setenv XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS 1
nc xxx => works

I'll get the lesstif-devel package and I'll try to compile a CVS version
of nedit. But I don't feel confortable with "unstable" versions. So I
prefer one of the 2 first workarounds.

Thanks to all for your help.

Here is the (big) output of the 'xdpyinfo' command.

Regards.

Eric.
