Thanks for your comments Mark. I worked with Scott Balnaeves in #ltsp and he ported the old X_RAMPERC from LTSP4 to LTSP5 for me. I did post the instructions for implementing X_RAMPERC to the edubuntu-users list (didn't think of posting here) https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives /edubuntu-users/2007

By caching pixmaps to X11, it is possible that Xorg might crash the system or render it unusable. This occured in an LTSP context and the workaround was to add the following lines to the script calling startx. This essentially sets a ulimit on Xorg to about 80% of the memory: X_RAMPERC=${X_RAMPERC

Just wanted to add that we are experiencing this same problem (6-school Ubuntu/LTSP5/FF install). A fix would be pretty nice, because this issue is causing our thin clients to hard-lock constantly with regular usage. Not very fun for the students, and the image of Linux/Open source projects, either

I can report this to Gecko/Firefox as well then. You note changes to version 3.0 to clean cache, this most likely won't help. I assume the cache will only be cleaned when the user leaves the cached page. The problem isn't cache building up over time and not being properly released. The problem

I also want to be sure the Ubuntu devels are aware of the problem as this will make it very hard for Edubuntu to gain a user base. If people install and edubuntu system and clients constantly freeze while users browse the web with any mozilla based browser, they are very likely to move on and disc

On another note, according to the Gecko/Firefox devs at Mozilla, version 3.0 (now in alpha) makes a significant difference in this behavior by automatically cleaning the cache. -- Firefox caches pixmaps to X11, need feature to disable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/137764 You received this bug n
