When xxkb built with 'svg' use flag, it fails to display shipped with it xpm icons: xxkb: SVG file `/usr/share/xxkb/en15.xpm': Error domain 1 code 4 on line 1 column 1 of file:///usr/share/xxkb/en15.xpm: Document is empty Maybe it must convert them to SVG during install with 'svg' useflag? Reproducible: Always
Oops, xpm is a raster format...
About which xxkb version are you talking? Could you please also provide your emerge --info output?

Just provided it with .svg images and I got the same result as I currently get without svg use flag: X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 62 (X_CopyArea) Serial number of failed request: 500 Current serial number in output stream: 504 I get quite a few hits when googeling for xxkb "invalid parameter attributes", but most of them are Russian. Looking at your e-mail address, maybe you can help and check if there is a known solution to this problem?
It seems that "BadMatch" error is unrelated to images. BTW, documentation is slightly out of date: one must use "XXkb.mainwindow.image.N" instead of "XXkb.mainwindow.xpm.N" and same for XXkb.label . XXkb works for me when I put svg images (from Wikipedia) to /usr/share/xxkb/ and with following .xxkbrc: --- XXkb.mainwindow.type: tray XXkb.button.geometry: 16x16-3+0 XXkb.button.image.1: en.svg XXkb.button.image.2: ru.svg XXkb.button.image.3: su.svg XXkb.mainwindow.geometry: 16x16+0+0 XXkb.mainwindow.image.1: en.svg XXkb.mainwindow.image.2: ru.svg XXkb.mainwindow.image.3: su.svg --- It seems that svg support is experimental/undocumented, as it isn't reflected at all in docs.
So we need not only install xpm icons, but also fix /etc/X11/app-defaults/XXkb to point to them. And xpm icons are useless with svg-enabled version, at least ATM.
Created attachment 223835 [details] My emerge --info, if you need it
So maybe the error I get is related to using KDE4 or some setting in the xdefaults-file. Plan for xxkb: If svg is in USE, fix the XXkb file to point to svg files, depend on imagemagick and convert the .xpm to .svg. Any other suggestions?

Converting raster image (xpm) to vector (svg) is maybe a bad idea, because imagemagick's convert utility converts every pixel to small circle. So, resulting image will be extremely heavy and displays extremely slow: $ convert en48.xpm en.svg $ ls -lh en* -rw-r--r-- 1 mars mars 2.6K Mar 16 16:47 en48.xpm -rw-r--r-- 1 mars mars 103K Mar 16 16:47 en.svg So, is it possible to get svg images from some other source? (Maybe from Wikipedia?)

(Maybe from > Wikipedia?) Excellent idea. I just checked a few images and they are in the public domain (or equivalent). I hope I'll get around to do this next week.
Well, later than expected, but just put -r1 into CVS. Please give it a try and re-open if there are problems.
