Bug 306211 – app-office/openoffice-3.2.0 and 3.1.1, with KDE integration, fail to start with X-Error: BadDrawable

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Antanas Uršulis 2010-02-21 16:47:36 UTC]

Openoffice 3.1.1 and 3.2.0 do not start with kde USE-flag enabled. The splash screen shows up, the progress bar goes full, then the main windows appears and immediately closes (I can get a glimpse of the menu, toolbar, etc. before it disappears) with the following messages in the terminal:

[ 18:40:13 ][ uranium@diamond ~ ]$
oowriter
[ 18:41:20 ][ uranium@diamond ~ ]$
X-Error: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)
        Major opcode: 62 (X_CopyArea)
        Resource ID:  0x0
        Serial No:    461 (461)
These errors are reported asynchronously,
set environment variable SAL_SYNCHRONIZE to 1 to help debugging

and

[ 18:42:15 ][ uranium@diamond ~ ]$
SAL_SYNCHRONIZE=1 oowriter
[ 18:42:22 ][ uranium@diamond ~ ]$
X-Error: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)
        Major opcode: 62 (X_CopyArea)
        Resource ID:  0x0
        Serial No:    597 (597)

Reproducible: Always

[Comment 2 Franz Trischberger 2010-02-21 17:41:01 UTC]

which kde-style/windeko do you use? Probably changing to oxygen (works here with 3.1.1) or something like Plastique or QtCurve fixes your issue?

[Comment 3 Antanas Uršulis 2010-02-21 17:47:54 UTC]

Well, no, I was using oxygen the whole time. I've just had a hunch this might have to do something with Qt's raster rendering engine (qt-gui[raster]). Do you have it turned on?

[Comment 4 Antanas Uršulis 2010-02-21 18:18:58 UTC]

My thoughts were correct. I have just reemerged qt-gui without raster USE flag and it works. Now, after a little googling, I found out that you can choose the native backend by running a Qt application with "-graphicssystem native" as command-line parameters. Is there any way to pass this to Openoffice?

[Comment 5 Bartosz Brachaczek 2010-02-21 23:34:31 UTC]

Confirming that x11-libs/qt-gui built with USE=raster breaks OOo. Maybe openoffice ebuild should block raster USE flag for qt-gui?

patch to hardcode "native" Qt graphics backend

I don't think so, really. As a workaround, here's a quick one-line patch that hardcodes OO.o to use the "native" backend which is always available. The build went OK and it works for me. Of course, it would be best to somehow pass the "-graphicssystem native" option to the application, but I couldn't find a way. You'll need an updated ebuild (next post).

ebuild with new patch enabled

[Comment 8 Andreas Proschofsky (RETIRED) 2010-02-22 10:12:09 UTC]

I've added the patch to the OOo 3.2.0 ebuild now, thanks for providing it! Closing
