Summary: hundreds of dead /usr/lib64/beagle/IndexHelper.exe
processes make X unusable
Product: openSUSE 10.2
Version: Final
Platform: x86-64
OS/Version: Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Major
Priority: P5 - None
Component: GNOME
AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com
ReportedBy: trenn@novell.com
QAContact: qa@suse.de
Symptom: You cannot start any X based application any more:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Maximum number of clients reached
Reason: Hundreds of /usr/lib64/beagle/IndexHelper.exe processes. Each of them
tries to open a connection(socket) to the X server:
ps aux |grep -c IndexHelper
460
X seem to only allow 255 (or near this value) connections.
The /usr/lib64/beagle/IndexHelper.exe processes seem to all get stuck at when
trying to connect to (another, not the sockect to X) socket:
strace -p 1856
Process 1856 attached - interrupt to quit
connect(16, {sa_family=AF_FILE,
path="/tmp/beagle-trenn-337fb988-32c4-440b-af22-b8c18c8a816f/socket-helper"},
71
It's possible that this is related to another error (/var/log/warn)?:

However, there definetly seem to be a bug in /usr/lib64/beagle/IndexHelper.exe
application. Even (not sure) this is only an error case when it stucks (if not,
this is a blocker...), the application still must exit gracefully and not mess
up the whole X-server.
I will now kill these applications. Not sure whether I am still able to
reproduce this then. I try to let some of the beagle threads open.
