I've been running XInside's server for quite a while, since it seemed to do a better job of handling the Java stuff on my box. However, it corrupts memory all over the place and locks up my computer doing 16/24 bit stuff, so I reverted back to XFree86 last night. Ever since going back, I've had *tons* of sio overflow errors, at the strangest times. I'm not even near the computer when I get them, but given that the applications are *exactly* the same as before, and I never had problems before I'm almost 100% sure it's gotta be XFree86 that's causing them. However, I do note that my system seems to be more 'responsive' with the XFree86 server than with the Xi server, possibly due to memory use. I only have 16MB on my 486/66 (it's the 'original' FreeBSD box), and given that my boxes at work are much more capable this box has becomea a glorified X-terminal. Nate
