Experienced this with Ubuntu 16.04 after using my work desktop station
as a temporary server with vagrant servers and using gnome-shell as my
DE for about a month. Nautilus started to crash with the error:
cannot open display: :0.0
Maximum number of clients reached
Restarting gdm3 didn't work either. Killed all users, and run startx as
root launched the gnome-shell and nautilus worked, but I could not make
gdm3 start as gdm3 user again.
** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu)
Status: Invalid => Confirmed
