Hello
I'm experiencing a weird behaviour from KDE for a few days with an up to date debian unstable. From time to time it stops opening new programs, and programs already opened are unable to display dialogs. I suspect it is unable to open any new window.
Keeping a terminal open I tried to launch new programs when the problem appears and I get this error:
"Maximum number of clients reached Error: cannot open display: :0"
Tried xrestop and it is full of entries with PID as ? and Identifier ""Qt Selection Owner for thumbnail.so"
Log out / in does not solve the problem, a system reboot is needed to return to normality (for a while)
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
maybe this way you can find the culprit:
$ lsof -U +c 15 | cut -f1 -d' ' | sort |
uniq -c | sort -rn | head -3
