Hello, I have a thread that draws to a GtkDrawingArea, and randomly I will get this error:
Xlib: unexpected async reply 0xSomeHeXNumber
and the program "freezes" (i.e., I can't tell if the background computation is still going or not, but the GUI becomes unresponsive)...
I have tried to fix this using both gdk_flush() and XFlush(GdkDisplay *) as per http://www.gtk.org/faq/#AEN492 , but I still get this error some times... Note that I have also enclosed this thread's spawn call with gdk_threads_{enter,leave}() , respectively...
Any ideas why the flushes won't completely eradicate this problem and how I might go about fixing it...??? Thanks...
