I initialize the toolkit, create an application context, and then do an XtOpenDisplay for each display. I can open the same display multiple times, but not different displays. The error I get is: X Protocol error detected by server: BadCursor - parameter not a Cursor Failed request major op code 1 (X_CreateWindow) Failed request minor op code 0 (if applicable) ResourceID 0x100083 in failed request (if applicable) Serial number of failed request 318 Current serial number in output stream 428 Any hints? I'm running X11R3 under Ultrix 3.1 on a DECstation 3100. Thanks - John P.S. Should I make unique copies of all the elements of argv for each XtOpenDisplay, or can I use the same strings in the different argv's? -- hagerman@ece.cmu.edu
