Are you sure I meant to write that? As soon as I logged back in, I got an error message how that isn't a valid path (yes, I did change 'your_executable' to the name of my executable) and how the environment variables aren't configured properly and I should fix that as soon as feasible. Tried to copy the message, but for some reason the copy buffer was emptied after that.
When I recompiled the program and tried to run the debug version from the console, I got this message:
The program 'speccer' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)'.
(Details: serial 52 error_code 10 request_code 2 minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
Or should I have written the absolute path to the executable instead of just the executable name?
