Sorry, two more questions: 1. is there any other program which can make this happen? Can you run 'xterm' or 'gnome-terminal' or 'xeyes' with no problem? If not, then we should probably mark this bug as affecting firefox as well.
2. exactly what happens on the client when it is misbehaving? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/728017 Title: xwindows over ssh causes instability -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
