Is it possible for dead applications to "use" resources in the X server? I mean, if a web browser allocate several resources in the X server (shared memory, pixmaps, fonts, I do not know what types of resources are available for allication), and they die, is all these resources released in the server? The reason I ask, is that I suspect that buggy applications can use up a lot of resources in the X server, making the X process so big that I have to restart the X server after a while to get back my systems performance. At least it seem to be that way to me. If this is the case, would some kind of garbage collection be posible? I mean, locate orphaned resources, and release them. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
