Hi all,

I have a home-compiled version of VMD 1.9.3, and some plugins (e.g.
contact map and timeline) don't show any text in their interface
windows. There are (were?) more messages on this list with the same
issue, but no solutions other than using the precompiled binaries. I
compiled my VMD and plugins with the system TCL 8.6.

The console spews the following errors:

vmd > X_QueryColors: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for
operation) 0xff000000
XRequest.139: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) 0x184
XRequest.139: RenderBadPicture (invalid Picture parameter) 0x6800063
XRequest.139: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) 0x184
XRequest.139: RenderBadPicture (invalid Picture parameter) 0x6800067
XRequest.139: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) 0x184
XRequest.139: RenderBadPicture (invalid Picture parameter) 0x6800069
XRequest.139: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) 0x184
XRequest.139: RenderBadPicture (invalid Picture parameter) 0x6800082

etc...

Does anyone have any blinding insight in how I can further debug or fix
this?

Peter
