I heard nealbirch said:
It's not just kde, I use window maker now ( I do have kde installed thought) and have the same problem with GL. I use a nvidia card, btw
IIRC, the NVidia drivers are known to leak memory at every turn. You may want to try to take the X session down, rmmod the NVidia kernel driver, reload it and restart X. It may help.
This being said, I think I have noticed that KDE is a little snappier
when, after it has run for a couple weeks straight, I restart it. There might be some memory leak in it as well, for all I know.
Ok, I will try that. The problem is that once the display is hosed, I have to ssh in to kill it. I can start an x session remotely, btw, but killing that session still leaves the display all fsked up. I will see if it frees up the memory later today after another session of nwn.
At least it's not hard to duplicate. I will look at the nvidia site later and see if there are any reports there, which I haven't done yet.
I promised to help take down the christmas tree first, though... lol
