unknown xclients from xrestop
Hey Debian Users!
After a few days, new windows will no longer open on my XFCE Jessie
Desktop. After doing some research I found out that something is
leaving around "unknown" xclient resources:
tubaman@livingroom:~$ xrestop -b -m 1 | grep -A 10 '<unknown>' | head
2 - <unknown> ( PID: ? ):
res_base : 0x0
res_mask : 0x1fffff
windows : 2
GCs : 0
fonts : 2
pixmaps : 0
pictures : 0
glyphsets : 0
colormaps : 0
Once the resources are exhausted, no more xclients can connect to the
X server. For example, right now there are about 150 of these "unknown"
resources hanging around:
tubaman@livingroom:~$ xrestop -b -m 1 | grep '<unknown>' | wc -l
150
That number will grow until I can no longer open new windows.
How do I prevent this from happening?
How can I tell what program is causing this so I can file a bug?
Thanks!
Ryan
