And this is presumably triggered either by some new Xorg behavior in fc9 or just the scheduler timing changes that caused other things too? Your suggested solution sounds ok, but I'm also wondering why those things aren't properly refcounted? It does sound like a bug to free the thing before all users are gone - regardless of anything else. Hmm? But the ungrab sounds like the best short-term fix. Do we have a patch for testing? Please? It's pretty late in the 2.6.25 cycle for these kinds of things.. Linus
