you haven't posted much code. 

the golden rule of X programming (with *any* toolkit) is:

    use only 1 thread to make calls that resolve to Xlib calls

if you don't want to do this, then you have to use mutexes to protect
each and every call to any function that might ever make a call to
Xlib. g_threads_enter() and g_threads_leave() are your GTK-related
friends here. See the FAQ.
