gdk... um......... wtf?

[raster redhat com]

Um.. okay.. is there anyone who has tried to mesh Xlib code with gdk
before? things arne't looking good.. a simple function call that SHOULD
work.. and without gdk always has worked, now fails wiht low-level X
errors..... has anyone seen this before?

gdb:

** ERROR **: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)

(gdb) 

the bit of code:

... unimportant ...

   disp=(Display *)gdk_display;
   if (!disp)
     {
        return;
     }
   id=(ImlibData *)malloc(sizeof(ImlibData));
   if (!id)
     {
        return;
     }
   id->x.disp=disp;
   id->x.screen=DefaultScreen(disp); /* the screen number */
   id->x.root=DefaultRootWindow(disp); /* the root window id */
   id->x.visual=DefaultVisual(disp,id->x.screen); /* the visual type */
   id->x.depth=DefaultDepth(disp,id->x.screen); /* the depth of the screen in b$
   if (XShmQueryExtension(id->x.disp))
     {
        id->x.shm=1;
        id->x.shm_event=XShmGetEventBase(id->x.disp)+ShmCompletion;
        id->x.last_xim=NULL;
        id->x.last_sxim=NULL;
        id->max_shm=0x7fffffff;
        if (XShmPixmapFormat(id->x.disp)==ZPixmap) id->x.shmp=1;
     }
   else
     {
        id->x.shm=0;
        id->x.shmp=0;
     }
... etc. ...
