[pete@7-of-9 ~]$ claws-mail The program 'claws-mail' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 62148 error_code 3 request_code 152 minor_code 3) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) if that helps i do not have any of the debugging stuff installed on here ..
