[Bug 1518411] Re: "Maximum number of clients reached", new in Ubuntu 15.10

 

It's a script I wrote myself. I would be happy to share it if that would
be useful.

I do not understand why you marked this issue invalid.

Surely you are not meaning to suggest that it is invalid for users to
write their own tools which periodically change the desktop background
using the interfaces that are provided for doing exactly that?

Title:
  "Maximum number of clients reached", new in Ubuntu 15.10

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  In my newly upgraded (from 15.04) Ubuntu 15.10 system, after I've been
  logged in for a while I can no longer open new windows and instead get
  a "Maximum number of clients reached" error.

  This did not happen in 15.04.

  I ran "lsof" on the X server and did not see an excessive number of
  open file descriptors. I ran it again on a newly restarted X server
  and the number of open file descriptors looked about the same.

  I also ran "xlsclients" when the X server was reporting "Maximum
  number of clients reached" and the list of clients looked correct and
  reasonable (and there were less than 30 of them).

  I am happy to collect any additional logs or debugging information to
  help track this down. I don't know where to look further.
