SEGV on start when MAXCLIENTS is reached - Maximum number of clients reached
Last modified: 2010-10-25 09:40:10 UTC
If this is reached: ./include/misc.h:#define MAXCLIENTS 256 You see following errors: <code> Maximum number of clients reached ** (nautilus:40909): WARNING **: Unable to open display ':0.0' when setting background pixmap (nautilus:40909): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_draw_pixbuf: assertion `GDK_IS_DRAWABLE (drawable)' failed (nautilus:40909): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_convert: assertion `str != NULL' failed (nautilus:40909): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_convert: assertion `str != NULL' failed Segmentation fault </code>

To see who is hammering X, you can use `xlsclients`. Please reopen if that shows nautilus is the culprit.
At least there shouldn't be: Segmentation fault All 'Segmentation fault' are bugs. > sudo chrome Maximum number of clients reached (chrome:55704): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0 > xlsclients Maximum number of clients reachedxlsclients: unable to open display ":0.0" > gnome-about Maximum number of clients reached/usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:57: GtkWarning: could not open display warnings.warn(str(e), _gtk.Warning) > firefox3 Maximum number of clients reachedMaximum number of clients reachedError: cannot open display: :0.0 All other application doesn't do SEGV if Maximum number of clients is reached.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segmentation_fault So it's normal behavior then that it dump core files all the time, when I run it?
