Just tried your patch.
Works fine on xeyes, xcalc etc but banged (Dr Watson and all that jazz) on
ethereal (a gtk application).
I put the .ini file in c:\windows, but I assume it can go anywhere in the
%PATH%?
I'll have a play a bit more later and come back with some better results and
trace!
Can you guys find an app that runs locally which causes this? I'm cut off
from real unix machines and compiling Konqueror under cygwin is a little
bit more than I'm up for. Just d/ling it would probably take all day!
My initial feeling is that this is just a pixmap depth problem: The XC
apps all use 1-bit bitmaps, and the commercial-ish apps give colored pixmaps
and that function miGetImage() doesn't downconvert, so the memory given
for the bitmap isn't enough (not is the processing right, but that won't
cause a crash, just ugliness).
Also, that xwin.ini is just vestigial, feel free to remove it from the
code unless you really want to hand-iconify apps.
