Package: x11-utils
Version: 7.3+1
Severity: normal
Due to a resource leak in both xloadimage -onroot and xli -onroot
(bugs 325689, 387030, and 471121), I have been left with the dreaded:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Maximum number of clients reached
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: :0.0
xrestop shows 100 or so of these ghost windows:
253 - <unknown> ( PID: ? ):
res_base : ox200000
res_mask : ox1fffff
windows : 0
GCs : 1
fonts : 0
pixmaps : 0
pictures : 0
glyphsets : 0
colormaps : 0
passive grabs : 0
cursors : 0
unknowns : 0
pixmap bytes : 0
other bytes : ~24
total bytes : ~24
that add up to give me my 255 window limit.
A similar leak in qiv leads to the shell snippet presented in bug
351816, involving xlsclients. xlsclients doesn't list any of these
ghost windows though:
xlsclients -l | grep Window | wc -l
78
Is it possible, or indeed sensible, to list these windows in the same
fashion as xrestop? I presume there would be still no simple way
involving xkill (or the like) of freeing those resources anyway, so it
might be a bit academic, however it is misleading to the user who is
trying to track down their resource leaks, not to have them listed in
the output of xlsclients.
