Hi all,

I run LinuxPPC 1999 (aka LinuxPPC R5, based upon glibc 2.1 and a 2.2.11 kernel)
on a Power Mac. Xforms 0.88 and 0.89 work really fine with 8 and 16 bpp visual
types, but with 32 bpp EVERY xforms based application crashes with the following
X error (in this example it was "fdesign"):

X Error of failed request: BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib
length error)
Major opcode of failed request: 91 (X_QueryColors)
Serial number of failed request: 141
Current serial number in output stream: 141

Is this a problem with X or a problem with the forms lib? Maybe I should add
that I did not encounter any problem with any other X toolkit/application...

Thanks for your help,

Albrecht.
