I have noticed the X server leaking for a long time, unfortunately I haven't been able to track it down yet. Beware though that at least part of what you see could be client leaks as the X server stores lots of resources on behalf of clients. What happens if you log out and back in (current display managers shouldn't restart the X server in that case unless you explicitly configure them to)? > Another issue is that the Xv support now seems broken.

If this only occurs in high resolutions, it's a known problem which the GATOS project seems to have fixed in their drivers. -- Earthling Michel D�nzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
