I am having a persistent issue launching apps in my newly installed ubuntu 14.04 install. Basically, everythign will be running fine for a while, but then when I attempt to open some apps (like the ghome calculator for instance) they dont launch. If I try to launch them from terminal however I will get errors like this:
Maximum number of clients reached
** (gcalctool:19516): WARNING **: Could not open X display
Maximum number of clients reached Cannot open display:
Use 'gnome-calculator --help' to display help.
So far this has happened with Nemo, Gnome Calculator, and Libre Office
How can I destroy these ghost clients?
Where can I look to start to troubleshoot this error?
It seems the numbers for Chrome are normal (from your pastebin). I think you should look at slack. There are a couple of open issues on github about this problem like Electron is leaking Xorg connections over time and on every desktop notification causing Xorg to stop accept clients. There replied with saying it should be fixed in version 1.2.4 from the slack website
