Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver
I start my computer, work on it, go to sleep, wake up and after some time I can't start any app on it. If I run the app from a still open console (or a newly opened after closing one or two apps) I get errors like the following: Maximum number of clients reached/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:72: GtkWarning: could not open display warnings.warn(str(e), _gtk.Warning) Maximum number of clients reachedTraceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/update-manager", line 44, in <module> gtk.init_check() RuntimeError: could not open display Running Ubuntu 10.04. This bug is similar to what was reported in #263211. In the meanwhile until it is fixed: Is there any way (besides disabling the screensaver) to avoid this? Like manually removing the pixmaps/<unknown>'s from X? ** Affects: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver I start my computer, work on it, go to sleep, wake up and after some time I can't start any app on it.
