[NTLUG:Discuss] X 3.3.6 + Redhat 6.2 = Memory Prob

[lee@brave.com]

Running X 3.3.6 on a relatively fresh install of RH 6.2.

X consumes more and more memory over about a 8 hr period and then starts
to thrash swap; only way out is to kill X.

I had been running RH 6.0/1 with the X 3.3.6 server for quite a while with
no problem like this, I'm sure there's something with the latest RH
version which is causing the problem.  I'd experiment with X 4.0 but my
chip isn't supported yet.  The problem is the same for both RPM X and
compile-from-source X.  And no difference on either 2.2.14 or 2.2.15 Linux
kernel either.

Other relevent info: AMD K6 400MHz, 196M RAM, 313M swap, Cirrus video
chip.

Anyone have a clue about what might be going on with this?  Help?  :-)

Thanks,
