Following your suggestion I simplified the test to the following:
#!/bin/sh
LIMIT=2000
for((a=1; a<= LIMIT; a++))
do
examples/c/x10c -dev pngqt -o test.png
# examples/c/x26c -dev pngqt -o test.png -fam
echo -n "$a"
done
This pretty consistently locks up before a reachs 1000.
By sprinkling printf statements through the code I've determined that
the lock up occurs here:
new QApplication( argc, argv, isGUI );
in the file qt.cpp.
I also tried with DYN_DRIVERS=OFF, but the same thing happens.
Note that when it locks up I can see (using top) that x-session-manager
is running at 75% and gdm at 25%. Once this happens I cannot start any
other programs and I have to restart my computer.
