I am testing an application called NetBar -
http://jlliagre.free.fr/jllTools/readme.html|http://jlliagre.free.fr/jllTools/readme.html
which is giving the following error when trying to open an X11 window:



./netbar

using alternate -b&h--bold-r---10----m---1

Another application of the same package (cpubar) also the source of error, but runs smoothly.
