Is there a way around this?
A typical X server is built with: #define MAXCLIENTS 256 Every time you XOpenDisplay() it uses up client. When you use up the available clients you get the error above. VGL will open one display connection (client) to your local 3D X server per process it is preloaded into, if that process uses any symbol VGL is hooking. I would run `xlsclients -d :0` and/or `xlsclients -d :0 | wc -l` to check if some application(s) are using all available displays. I would also start vglrun with the +v option and count how many connections Visit itself uses. Look for: "[VGL] Opening local display" -Nathan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.
