- Hi... we have a strange problem here of certain bitmaps causing our
- indigos to crash. When people put, for example, "xsetroot -bitmap
- /usr/include/X11/bitmaps/plaid" in their .xsession and log in, when
- they log out, the computer crashes! If the bitmap is changed to
- /usr/include/X11/bitmaps/granite it works fine. .../bitmaps/woman
- also causes a crash.
-
- Any explanations?
