X server restarts unexpectedly
Hello,
I am running Debian Sid on a Thinkpad T61, and everything seems to
work fine except for more and more strange things that cause my X
server to restart. I've mostly ignored them up until now, but I'm
starting to get annoyed.
So, with that said, here are a list of things that have the same
effect as a Ctrl+Alt+Backspace on my system
Log out (using xfce-session-logout) doesn't just log out - it kills
gdm and causes it to restart.
setxkbmap: I was trying to switch keyboard layouts and X went poof
Openoffice.org 2.4 - As soon as I try to access a menu whether with
the mouse or with Alt, X crashes and I have to log back in, losing all
my work. At first, I thought it was just OO.o 2.4 beta's being buggy,
but now that they've released it and it still happens, I suspect
something else is going on.
Any ideas / suggestions on how to debug these situations?
Would appreciate any help - thanks!
