I'm running an AMD Radeon HD 6450 with the driver downloaded and installed from the AMD website (http://support.amd.com/en- us/download/desktop?os=Linux%20x86) When running sudo lsof -P `pidof X` I would also see a lot of entries like another user mentioned above: Xorg 21747 root 103r REG 8,4 0

This is looking more and more like a X server resource leak. I reached this state again after a couple of days (as I usually do) and tried to capture some information to compare with the clean-state data, so I closed everything I had open until I had only the clients that I normally have right

I don't think this is an issue with a hardcoded constant in X, not unless someone recently made it much smaller. I hadn't seen this problem at all in 15+ years of using Linux/X, not until upgrading from 10.04LTS to 12.04LTS. More likely it's a newly introduced resource leak in X or gnome. I'm

Anyway, googling for the error message suggests that lots of people hit this; its a hard-coded constant in an X11 header file; it would need to be changes and have X11 recompiled, or made into a run-time configurable parameter. Lets just hope that Wayland doesn't have this problem ... -- You

Although I agree with both points. It is hard coded limit in X11, and you can hit it with NVIDIA drivers. However, in this case, there is a bug in the ATI drivers which causes users to hit this limit sooner due to elevated number of windows created and/or not released correctly. Wayland *should*

There is an easy way around this -- rename (or even delete) the file /etc/ati/atiapfuser.blb. From my research this is a user profile which doesn't seem to be utilized, at least in my case. When that files exist, you will see LOTS of entries like: Xorg21747 root 103r REG8,4
