I have been working with a program which is basically to display an
image created by another program. When I iconify the first program, a
few seconds later it dies with:

X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  42 (X_SetInputFocus)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  0
  Resource id in failed request:  0xe00002
  Serial number of failed request:  59
  Current serial number in output stream:  60

I have the source, but I am a novice with X-windows. Can anyone give
me some advice as to what may be going wrong? Or at least a hint to
which FM I should read?

Sincerely
