Hi all, Any idea what causes this message? : Xlib: connection to ":2.0" refused by server Xlib: Maximum number of clients reached Unable to open display I have googled and found very little on the subject. I found some info in this thread : http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2003/debian-user-200312/thrd9.html#06539 which suggests that this is controlled by a ulimit or a limit in the xserver itself. (changing these have no effect) OR : A broken app. I've narrowed down the suspect apps to a single one : xscreensaver xlsclients, lsof, ps afx and /proc/ didn't help at all. So my problem is that I need to now restart x every time after xscreensaver ran for an hour or more. I really like xscreensaver, and would like to keep it if possible. Could it be the nvidia driver. How do I narrow this down further.
