Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
------------------------------------------------------------
XFree86 Version: XFree86 Version 4.2.1 (Debian 4.2.1-3 20021016191246 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]) / X Window System

OS: Debian 3.0 unstable

Area: Xserver ?

Server: XFree86 (The XFree86 4.x server)

Server: (ati driver)

Description:

Just noticed that the mail got clipped at 40KB, so "Repeat by"
was missing :-\
Thus I'm submitting this followup.

Repeat By:

Not easily reproducible (this strange problem never occurred
before).
I'll just describe what the current system condition and history is:
The system is a Dell Inspiron 5000e notebook with a custom 2.4.20 kernel
with an uptime of 4 days (and 4 days of XFree86 uptime).
This uptime is the combined uptime of several APM suspend/resume cycles
(switching to/from console for every suspend/resume).
I've been using IceWM multi-desktop switching extensively.
Also, I'm running Wine extensively, which might have caused this problem,
due to very lowlevel and powerful (and broken !? ;-)) X11 request processing.
(in other words: now you know that you should also consider the possibility
of Wine corrupting internal X11 structures via unchecked
parameter processing by X11 functions or so)

IceWM Debian version is 1.2.2-1.
