The program 'qutemol' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 367 error_code 9 request_code 137 minor_code 8)
  (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 a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

[... and aborts.]

Same when trying to use a PDB file, like 3dkl from

Hi,

Does it abort instantly, or does it load up the molecule at first, but
then crash when you hit one of the preset buttons?

What graphics hardware do you have and which driver do you use?

I am afraid that qutemol takes quite some requirements on graphics
cards, e.g. it does not work on my (i386) Thinkpad T42.  It does
however work on my (amd64) T400 Thinkpad.

So it is sort of a hit-and-miss thing I guess, and I am afraid that
there will probably be no upstream support for troubles like this
anymore at this point.

Fine, just wanted to let you know :-)
