We are writing a fairly large package using Xlib on a sun3.
Occasionally, we get a crash of the X server, which in turn
destroys everything and jams the keyboard, forcing us to do a
kbd_mode to reset the keyboard. I guess we are in some way
abusing X, but we have no way of knowing how. Does anyone
know of any documented (of undocumented) reasons for
X Server crashes? This would be extremely helpful.
