Subject: Motif program dies on popup menus?

I'm having an unusual problem, and am desparately in need of some help
in solving it.  My motif application has been developed on a Sparcstation
running SunOS4.1 and Motif 1.1.  It runs fine there.  I move this
application to another workstation, in another lab, which is running
SunOS4.1, but does not have Motif installed.  In that environment, the
program runs fine up until I bring up a popup menu.  The menu never
appears, but rather, the program dies with the following X error:

   Request Major code  28
   Request Minor code  0
   Resource ID         0x80000e
   Error Serial        #205
   Current Serial      #206

There is nothing particularly funny or unusual about my program.  I had
suspected that the problem may be the incorrect patch level of the R4
server running on that host.  However, I brought my version down and
installed it, and the same error happened.  I brought down my own
shared libraries too, but I'm not sure if those libraries were being
used (don't know enough about shared libraries...).

I know this isn't much, but can anyone shed some light on this?  I'm
also very interested in what types of debugging tools I should use
to try to track this down myself.

thanks,

dan haug
