Isabelle,
Try not using PFWIN_SHARE_FBCONFIG in the share mode. By definition an
overlyay window and a normal window cannot have exactly the same
framebuffer configuration.
What's interesting is that the X error you get reports a value of 0x0 on
AllocColorCells, which means that XCreateColormap probably failed and was
not caught earlier in the code.
