Gtkradiant Run Error

[crazyamerican]

Yes, I know a thread about this already exists, but it has no answer. I am simply trying to bring the problem back to people's attentions.

System Specs:
1.5GB Memory
1.6Ghz Intel Celeron
Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid

The Problem:

I have installed Gtkradiant, but when I try to run it, I get this:

urface@urface-urface:/opt/gtkradiant$ ./radiant.x86 
Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_get_window_type: assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed


(process:22326): Gdk-CRITICAL (recursed) **: gdk_window_get_window_type: assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed
aborting...
Aborted

What do I need to do to fix this problem?

I've the same problem after installing ubuntu 10.04.
Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_get_window_type: assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed


(process:2798): Gdk-CRITICAL (recursed) **: gdk_window_get_window_type: assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed

I am also having this problem. What's worse is that I can't find any information on it here or elsewhere.

I am seriously hoping that there is someone who can help with this.

Hi,

I am getting the same error, when try to run radiant.x86 on Lucid:
***********************
Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_get_window_type: assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed
(process:2651): Gdk-CRITICAL (recursed) **: gdk_window_get_window_type: assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed
aborting...
Aborted
***********************

I am attaching the strace & ltrace output, if that would help.

Thanks,
Ram

I also tried to run radiant after disabling Desktop Effects. Still no luck!
Has anyone got it running?

Thanks,

After all everything is running.
If you run GtkRadiant there's a file in your home directory
something like :

~/.GtkRadiant/1.5.0/global.pref

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<qpref version="1.0">
<epair name="gamePrompt">false</epair>
<epair name="gamefile">q2.game</epair>
<epair name="log console">true</epair>
</qpref>

If you change the true value gamePrompt in false the program skips the game selection and then it runs the program.
I don't understand why the model popup is not running anymore. Have to find out this later.

I have no directory named ~/.GtkRadiant/ in my home directory, the closest thing that is there one simply named .radiant/.

There is no global.pref file in the 1.5.0 subdirectory. I created a global.pref file using the text and xml data which you provided.

It did not help as I am still getting exactly the same error message.

Sorry I still have the error in zeroradiant, but not in the program which I use (basically branch 1.5).
Do you have installed and build zeroradiant ? http://www.qeradiant.com/cgi-bin/tra...ki/ZeroRadiant
A long time ago I use the next two checkouts as base for some changes :

https://zerowing.idsoftware.com/svn/...t/branches/1.5 ./GtkRadiant1.5br
https://zerowing.idsoftware.com/svn/.../Q2Pack/trunk/ ./Q2Pack

Is suppose you found also this manual : http://openarena.wikia.com/wiki/Conf...nt_under_Linux
Is there any radiant.log and if, what's the information in it ?
What's the owner and group of your .radiant directory, because the program need write access.
Is there a screen anyway like the next one ?



Do you have the Quake2 data files installed ?
I need some more information.

On closer inspection turned out not to work and all the error still occurred when opening some pop-ups.

The problem seems solved now, if you are in the following function of

<radiantdir>/libs/gtkutil/dialog.cpp

turns over the two the first lines :

EMessageBoxReturn modal_dialog_show(GtkWindow* window, ModalDialog& dialog)
{
gtk_grab_add(GTK_WIDGET(window));
gtk_widget_show(GTK_WIDGET(window));

dialog.loop = true;
while(dialog.loop)
{
gtk_main_iteration();
}

gtk_widget_hide(GTK_WIDGET(window));
gtk_grab_remove(GTK_WIDGET(window));

return dialog.ret;
}

change to :

EMessageBoxReturn modal_dialog_show(GtkWindow* window, ModalDialog& dialog)
{
gtk_widget_show(GTK_WIDGET(window));
gtk_grab_add(GTK_WIDGET(window));

dialog.loop = true;
while(dialog.loop)
{
gtk_main_iteration();
}

gtk_widget_hide(GTK_WIDGET(window));
gtk_grab_remove(GTK_WIDGET(window));

return dialog.ret;
}

I have tried that in the terminal but I got "No such file or directory".The same thing when I pasted the cpp file in the terminal and pressed Enter.When I tried to run it from Nautilus with the Autorun Prompt,nothing happened.I do not think I'll ever get this problem solved.
