I've been trying to figure out why LyX core-dumps when I try to run it
with the display on a PC laptop running the MicroImages X-server. The
X-server works with other programs. When I start LyX, it displays,
then crashes with the messages:
BadFont (invalid Font parameter)
Abort (core dumped)
At Jean-Marc's suggestion, I checked the fonts.dir on the PC X-server
and ran LyX with -dbg 515; the last error message is
BufferView::Redraw()
Adb on the core dump gives the following stack trace:
ron@rosie% adb /usr/local/src/lyx-1.0.0/src/lyx
core file = core -- program ``lyx'' on platform SUNW,SPARCstation-20
SIGABRT: Abort
$c
_libc_kill(?) + 8

+ ac
I'm stumped, and I'd really like to be able to run LyX remotely on the
laptop. Thanks for any sugestions and wisdom.
