Norbert, Shooting from the hip here it sounds like you have a bunch of clients in your XWin startup script that, one-by-one, attempt to connect to the server, find that they don't support the only available visual, then disconnect from the server (which causes the server to reset since that was the only connected client). After this the next client in your batch or script file is launched and does the same thing. Each client connection and server restart takes, say, 30 seconds.
Am I totally wrong here? Are you not trying to start any X clients? Something is telling the server to restart... we just have to figure out what that something is.
