Spaces issues

Subject: Spaces issues

I'm a fairly simple X11 user and don't understand where my problems reside. I'm your typical unix admin using xterms to ssh to multiple hosts. I predominantly use ssh -x or y <host> and rarely revert any display back to my machine.

I'm running 2.2.1-rc1....

I launch xterms using OnMyCommand.  Usually like so:

#!/bin/bash /usr/X11/bin/xterm -T mhdcdog01 -n mhdcdog01 -bg DarkOliveGreen -fg khaki -ls -e ssh -Y jburley@host

It will launch and sometimes run for days. I can have multiple windows open. I lock the windows to opening on one space only. Finally it will stop responding to keyboard input after changing focus. It doesn't crash, but it seems I've lost connection to the X server. However, I get nothing in the logs when this happens... until I quit X11:

4/28/08 12:24:44 PM org.x.startx[8110] font_cache: Scanning user font directories to generate X11 font caches 4/28/08 12:24:44 PM org.x.privileged_startx[8127] mktemp: mkdtemp failed on /tmp/.ICE-unix: File exists 4/28/08 12:24:44 PM org.x.privileged_startx[8127] mktemp: mkdtemp failed on /tmp/.X11-unix: File exists 4/28/08 12:24:44 PM org.x.privileged_startx[8127] mktemp: mkdtemp failed on /tmp/.font-unix: File exists 4/28/08 12:24:44 PM org.x.privileged_startx[8127] font_cache: Scanning user font directories to generate X11 font caches 4/28/08 12:24:44 PM org.x.startx[8110] font_cache: Updating FC cache 4/28/08 12:24:44 PM org.x.startx[8110] xinit: Detected Xquartz startup, setting file=/usr/X11/bin/X, argv[0]=/Applications/Utilities/ X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11 4/28/08 12:24:44 PM org.x.privileged_startx[8127] font_cache: Updating FC cache 4/28/08 12:24:45 PM org.x.startx[8110] Xquartz starting: 4/28/08 12:24:45 PM org.x.startx[8110] X.org Release 7.2 4/28/08 12:24:45 PM org.x.startx[8110] X.Org X Server 1.3.0-apple18 4/28/08 12:24:45 PM org.x.startx[8110] Build Date: 20080422 4/28/08 12:24:45 PM org.x.startx[8110] Xquartz: run by launchd for fd 0 4/28/08 12:24:47 PM org.x.privileged_startx[8127] font_cache: Done 4/28/08 12:24:47 PM org.x.startx[8110] font_cache: Done

Once I quit X11 (due to the unresponsiveness) I get:

4/28/08 12:28:41 PM [0x0-0xc00c].com.apple.finder[116] xterm: fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) or KillClient on X server "/tmp/launch- JGPWWs/:0" 4/28/08 12:28:41 PM [0x0-0xc00c].com.apple.finder[116] xterm: fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) or KillClient on X server "/tmp/launch- JGPWWs/:0" 4/28/08 12:28:41 PM [0x0-0xc00c].com.apple.finder[116] xterm: fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) or KillClient on X server "/tmp/launch- JGPWWs/:0" 4/28/08 12:28:41 PM org.x.startx[8110] xinit: connection to X server lost. 4/28/08 12:28:41 PM org.x.startx[8110] waiting for X server to shut down

Is there a way I can place the X server into a verbose debugging mode to figure out what is going on?

I'm running dual displays at 1600x1200 if that is any consolation.
