Tuxcards Crashes in JWM

[noip]

Installed Puppy 108 on a partition other than /dev/hdb10 ... Found that Tuxcards still crashes in JWM and is unuseable. My previous experience is that it is fine in other window managers.

What do get get for an error, if you run in a Consolewindow:

/usr/local/bin/tuxcards

Please also try this:

XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1
export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS
/usr/local/bin/tuxcards

In Puppy 107 (KDE-Puppy) it works:

Mark,

In both cases, the return statement in the terminal after I had to kill the application was "broken pipe". (assuming that this had nothing to do with my kill .... )

When I modified the environment / exported the variable, I got a bit further before the application froze and had to be killed.

When I killed the application by ctrl-c from the console, it exited with no errors.

To be specific:

1. Start tuxcards
2. New file
3. New node
4a .. normal mode - freeze - kill
4b .. variable export mode .. some typing in the data side of the new node ... new node - freeze - kill

This behaviour seems specific to JWM. It is a fresh Puppy install, with tuxcards and qt being the only additional programs, booted from HDD.

hm you're right, I get the same error here in KDE-Puppy that uses other Qt-Libraries.
Same with static compiled binary, and older version 1.1.
You might drop a mail to the JWM-developer about that...

It's nice when it really is a bug and not yourself stuffing up ....
