Hi I am pretty new to Cadence Administration. We have encountered the
following problems to which I found no suited solution yet. Our OS is
CentOS 4.7 (x86_64).

Everytime I click right on any view in the Cadence Library Manager the
Library Manager crashes with the following error message:

X Error of failed request BadWindow (invalid window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 38 (X_QueryPointer)
Resource id in failed request: 0x25
Serial number of failed request: 83739
Current serial number in output stream: 83739

It is posible to open any view by double clicking onto it but then it
opens in read-only mode (not a big problem cause you can make it
editable by clicking on Design - Make editable or press control + O).
But now we want to use Verilog-A views and if you open them by
doubleclicking they are read-only and there is no way to make them
editable.

Open the Verilog-A views with control + O gives the following error
message:

WARNING editFile: X Error of failed request: BadAtom (invalid Atom
parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 20 (X_GetProperty)
Atom id in failed request 0x48
Serial number of failde request 20
Current serial number in output stream: 20

No clue...

Well, this is an unsupported OS (i.e. Cadence do no testing on it), so caveat
emptor.

Everytime I click right on any view in the Cadence Library Manager the
Library Manager crashes with the following error message:

X Error of failed request BadWindow (invalid window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 38 (X_QueryPointer)
Resource id in failed request: 0x25

Current serial number in output stream: 83739
I remember seeing this years ago with fvwm as my window manager - it was OK (if
my memory is correct) if I used the middle mouse button.

What window manager are you using? Most likely it's a bug in the window manager...

It is posible to open any view by double clicking onto it but then it
opens in read-only mode (not a big problem cause you can make it
editable by clicking on Design - Make editable or press control + O).
But now we want to use Verilog-A views and if you open them by
doubleclicking they are read-only and there is no way to make them
editable.
Most likely, you've got the following cdsenv setting somewhere:

cdsLibManager.main dblClickEditCellView boolean nil

The default is t.


Open the Verilog-A views with control + O gives the following error
message:

WARNING editFile: X Error of failed request: BadAtom (invalid Atom
parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 20 (X_GetProperty)
Atom id in failed request 0x48
Serial number of failde request 20
Current serial number in output stream: 20
Again, bad window manager, bad OS maybe?

No clue...

The CDS.log file shows some Warnings:
Ditch the old cdsenv. It's full of obsolete cdsenv variables from older releases
(IC446 and earlier) - hence the many warnings.
