My sympathies. I finally gave up and started running a little shell script in the background that does an 'ls $HOME /dev/null 21' every 60 seconds. Total kludge, but it eliminates the symptoms. Clearly none of the maintainers feel this is of any particular importance so I guess I'll have to

(copied from my comment to bug 263211: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/263211 ) It seems that Maximum clients reached is more a symptom of it's own bug classification, which is indicative of any application not managing its X resources carefully. All

Then there are definitely two underlying issues producing similar symptoms. In my case: When the NFS automount times out, the next X client that tries to check .Xauthority is unable to do so. I can only assume that it used to attempt a read (which would trigger the mounter) and has been changed

I think we have two distinct underlying issues. In some cases, the problem is related to running out of file descriptors. In others (mine, for example) it's due to the automounter timing out the users's home directory, rendering .Xauthority unreachable. But, since it's getting no attention from

I have conclusively traced this down. It starts happening as soon as the automounter times out (typically 10 minutes of inactivity) and unmounts my home directory (accessed over NFS v3). I have no idea what changed in 8.04 to cause this symptom, as I've been using an NFS home directory for over
