X Server Infinite Looping?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am using XFree86 4.2.1 on Redhat 7.3 with kernel version 2.4.22.  The X server seems to be infinite looping -- top says it is utilizing 99.9% of the CPU.  I suspect an X client application is involved though I don't know if it is the cause or a victim.  Here's a backtrace of the X client (I'm including the loading of symbols just in case something in it is useful):

Is there anything I can do to see what the X server is doing?  Does anything in the above backtrace indicate whether the X client was the cause or the victim of this problem?  If additional information would be useful toward diagnosing this problem then please let me know and I will get it!
