xlib6 is for libc5 clients, xlib6g is for xlib6 clients. The problem went away for me after I upgraded to slink, which has xlib6 3.3.2a-8.
The X error I had previously was with hamm and xlib6 3.3.2.3-2, but it is different than the error you report: X Error of failed request: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) Major Opcode of failed request: 28 (X_GrabButton) Serial number of failed request: 2296 Current serial number in output stream: 2297 Bob On Sun, 27 Dec 1998, Stan Brown wrote: > I am trying to track down why WP8dies with X errors on my machine, but > not, acording to the single report I got, on all Debian hamm machines. > > I have, acording to dpkg -l a package called xlib6 3.3.2.3-2 installed. > The person with the succcess story has xlib6 3.3.2.2-4 installed. > First the description of these packages calls them libc5 X clients.
