Right now the Xserver uses the soft limit, could somebody let me know where such an allocation is done in the actual MIT X server? If I knew where to look, I could probably do a patch which I would be quite willing to distribute afterwards. And yes I would put appropriate ifdef's so that it would still compile on other platforms :-). Alain Brossard brossard@sasun1.epfl.ch
