Thanks for sharing your progress Ngadou! One suggestion you can try is ‘mged -c’ which will run mged in a classic command-line mode. From there, you can use the “nu” display manager to not start any GUI windows. If that works, you can at least consider the problem isolated to something regarding X11 on your system. Whether it works or not, you are welcome to debug the problem with print statements or in a debugger like lldb or gdb to figure out what is going on, where that error is coming from.
That error is not typical nor something that has been reported before. Without seeing more debugging information, I would assume there is something misconfigured or modified on your system, something specific to your system, that is causing the issue. The source files related to this are in src/mged and src/libdm Cheers!
