Lawrence D'Anna, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg-server REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding. Helpful bug reporting tips: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs ** No longer affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1045899 Title: Maximum number of clients reached Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After repeatedly using nitrogen to set my background picture, the X11 server ceases to accept new connections. xlib reports "Maximum number of clients reached". nitrogen does not show up in ps or xlsclients. xlsclients reports only 18 clients. I filed it under xorg because even though nitrogen triggers the problem, it seems that the actual problem is a resource leak in the X11 server.
