Guake is sometimes killed by Xorg (RenderBadPicture error)

[toal193]

This is specially common when returning from a fullscreen-based app. The following text is printed into stderr:

The program 'guake.py' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'RenderBadPicture? (invalid Picture parameter)'.

(Details: serial 1229 error_code 161 request_code 149 minor_code 7) (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.)

Humm, I've tried to reproduce this bug but with no success. Are you sure it's not being caused by some other package in your system?

I'm closing this bug as "works for me" but please reopen it if it happens again.

Thanks

How to reproduce bug:
0. Run Guake
1. Change resolution or orientation of screen
2. Repeat #1 until Guake crashes (you should get result after up to 10 trials)

I use Linux Mint Maya with Mate desktop
