I'm running an application on linux.  Every once in a while (two
times so far this week) the application will fall over with this
message:

  XIO: fatal IO error 105 (No buffer space available)

Doing a google search I found a similar Cygwin problem.  Our
application will run under Cygwin as well but at the moment I'm
discussing a Linux problem:

  http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2001-q4/msg00558.html

This seems to adequately describe the problem I'm seeing.  The
problem seems to happen overnight for me, perhaps when the system is
busy right after midnight rolling over logfiles and such.  The
application (xastir.sourceforge.net) is busy writing a lot of small
pixmaps to the screen at times, particularly when at U.S.-view or
World-wide-view map scales.

Is there anything I can do in the application to prevent this or is
it an X11 library bug?


I'm running SuSE Linux 9.0 and this X11 version:

  XFree86 Version 4.3.0.1
  Release Date: 9 May 2003
  X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.6
  Build Operating System: SuSE Linux [ELF] SuSE
  Build Date: 12 February 2004
