I use openbox. However, I don't think it's a client side problem, as
no grabs can prevent Ctrl-Alt-F1 and such to work. The freezes seem
random -- the last one I experienced (after ~week of flawless work)
occured after I opened a file with kate.
You're lucky. I might be able to use X in Debian if it only crashed
once a week. As it is, I'm still dual-booting Ubuntu if I want to get
any work done.
I use icewm and gdm. As mentioned on the original bug report, it
randomly freezes even when I use a remote machine via XDMCP.
The local machine that's running the X server still freezes randomly.
I suppose the remote client could ask for things that freeze the
server, but isn't that still a server problem?
If you get freezes regularly, you could possibly debug it. However,
I'm not an X developper, so I can't give you advice on that.
I think that it is an internal server problem which doesn't depend
on whether the clients are local or remote. (The only difference I
can tell is that the remote cannot use the shared memory extension).
Could you try upgrading xserver-xorg-xxx to unstable version to see
whether the problem persists in later versions?
