Smalltalk/X does not start from saved image

[patrik.svestka@…]

After lengthy session I've stored my work at image but when I tried to start from it I got to minidebugger with all windows blank.

The short message:

WinWorkstation [info]: CreateWindow S failed: 1406 (0x57e) [4770]

WinWorkstation [error]: CreateWindow failed: 1406 (0x57e) [9022]

NoHandlerError: primitive failed: a WinWorkstation(WinSta0)>>setEventMask:in:

When started with --abortOnSIGSEGV option got this Error stack:

Type "c" to proceed, "?" for help

I'm attaching also the log file.

session log file - multiple sessions

Just to add additional information. The Smalltalk/X does not start from image when started for second time after "long" usage.

Workflow (happened to me now for the third time in a row):

1. *hack* *hack* (for hours)
2. save to image
3. load from image
4. *hack* *hack* (for hours)
5. save to image
6. trying to load from image - but only blank windows are loaded -> bug
