Turn off your X screen saver. You don't need an X screen saver going when your Windows screen saver is doing its job. I've found that when the Windows screen saver is on, or I lock my screen using win-L, and I have an X application running that is drawing to the screen that my log will get filled with these messages. The X screensaver is typically the culprit as it is very busy drawing stuff. I have reported this problem here before, but it still persists (and I haven't done anything to fix it myself, shame on me :-) Cary
