trying to implement an event handler for XrandR events

[D M German <dmg uvic ca>]

Hi Everybody,

I am trying to implement an event handler for XRandR events. I think I
have everything in place, but I am getting a strange error. 

I have linked sawfish to the xrandr library:

sawfish : $(OBJS) $(LIBOBJS)
	$(rep_LIBTOOL) --mode=link --tag=CC $(CC) -export-dynamic $(LDFLAGS) \
	  -o sawfish $(OBJS) $(LIBOBJS) $(REP_LIBS) $(PANGO_LIBS) \
	  $(IMAGE_LIBS) $(X11_LIBS) $(EXTRA_X11_LIBS) $(LIBS) $(XRANDR_LIBS)

but when sawfish is executed, I get the following error.


dmg phosphorus:~/git.w/sawfish/src$ ./sawfish --batch
rep: received fatal signal: Segmentation fault

struct debug_buf common:

Backtrace in `fatal_signal_handler':
	<(null)+-1223764632>
	<XInitExtension+59>
	<XextAddDisplay+76>
	<(null)+-1222343312>
	<XRRQueryExtension+17>
	<events_init+44>
	<main+1748>
	<__libc_start_main+230>

Lisp backtrace:

Segmentation fault
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The code is fairly simple (beginning of events_init):

#ifdef HAVE_X11_EXTENSIONS_XRANDR_H
    int dummy;
    int randr_event_base; /* Will give us the offset for the xrandr events */
#endif

    has_randr = FALSE;
#ifdef HAVE_X11_EXTENSIONS_XRANDR_H
    has_randr = XRRQueryExtension( dpy, &randr_event_base, &dummy );
#endif
----------------------------------------------------------------------

ANy suggestions?

Thanks!
