Summary0008540: ACE EQ crashes Ardour when opening GUI
DescriptionI used ACE EQ successfully in a project including its GUI.
In the very same project it crashed Ardour after inserting a new instance in the master channel, when I tried to open its GUI(double click in the mixer strip).
After this happened, ACE EQ crashed a very new project also, that I had set up to test the problem.
But in that new project, Ardour crashes as soon as I try to insert the ACE plugin.
Inserting other ACE (compressor)works but also crashes as soon as I attempt to open the GUI.
Steps To ReproduceOpen project
insert ACE EQ:

HOST BG COLOR RGBA: 0x3d3d3dff
HOST CONTRAST COLOR RGBA: 0x4bcd2fff
HOST THEME BOXY: FALSE
HOST THEME FLAT: FALSE
doublebuffered rendering available
GLX-Version 1.4
The program 'ardour-6.5.0' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 22 error_code 2 request_code 151 minor_code 3)
  (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.)
Speicherzugriffsfehler (Speicherabzug geschrieben)

I ran ardour6 with that --sync option BTW


Additional InformationThe only faint hint I could give is, that I tried to inster a Harrison Plugin while working on the first session, got some Message, no success with the Harrison and so I moved on.
As far as I remember, I used the ACE EQ GUI before that attempt on Harrison successfully, I cannot tell, if I did so after too...

I do this with the latest official release from ardour.org
In Ubuntu Studio 20.4.1 LTS

Test project is attached.

That smells like an OpenGL issue. - Which graphics card and driver are you using?

Can you load them after disabling Preferences > Plugins > Automatically open the plugin GUI when adding a new plugin ?

I can insert them, when the auto opening of the GUI is disabeled, and they seem to work perfectly OK with the generic builtin GUI

My Graphics is this:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GM107 [GeForce GTX 750 Ti] (rev a2)

Running with thr recent proprietary driver.

After restarting the whole machine, the GUI of ACE EQ works OK, takes a few seconds to load tho.
I also see some lags in the transport animation, when their GUI is open.
Maybe related: All Plugins from Pere Ráfols Soler (several EQ) do not show their GUI as well...

The latter is a binary incompatibility (gtk2 libs) you have to use binaries from http://eq10q.sourceforge.net/?page_id=16
