Also experiencing this currently on Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS.
After working on the computer for a few hours, I can no longer open any
application (Nautilus, Terminal, etc).
If I already had a terminal open before the issue occurs and I try to
start nautilus from this old terminal, I get the following error:
Maximum number of clients reached
** (nautilus:29162): WARNING **: Could not open X display
sys:1: PyGIWarning: Nautilus was imported without specifying a version first.
Use gi.require_version('Nautilus', '3.0') before import to ensure that the
right version gets loaded.
/usr/share/nautilus-python/extensions/nautilus-admin.py:18: PyGIWarning: GConf
was imported without specifying a version first. Use
gi.require_version('GConf', '2.0') before import to ensure that the right
version gets loaded.
from gi.repository import Nautilus, GObject, GConf, Gtk, GLib
** Message: Init Stock Icons
Maximum number of clients reached
(nautilus:29162): GnomeDesktop-WARNING **: Unable to open display ':1' when
setting background pixmap
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
I tried all possible solutions that were provided by Google but nothing worked.
Restarting the system or closing half of the opened applications (e.g. Chrome
tabs) seems to resolve the issue temporarily, but this is not really a solution
but a workaround.
