I have to revise that last statement. Switching from awesome to Gnome
and back was enough to kill [awesome|the X server awesome was running
on].
I found this in my .xsession-errors after the crash:
XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0.0"
after 126011 requests (126011 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
W: awesome: xcolor_init_reply:843: awesome: error, cannot allocate color
'#0033409a'
E: awesome: xutil_screen_get:123: X connection invalid
urxvt: X connection to ':0.0' broken, unable to recover, exiting.
Nothing suspicious in the Xorg.?.log files.
In /var/log/gdm/:0.log.2 I found this:
Backtrace:

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11. Server aborting
So this seems to be an nvidia issue.
Btw, could someone give me a hint how I can avoid that the
.xsession-errors gets overwritten on each new X session? I'd rather have
the new output appended.
Greetings,
Frank
