Bug Description
When geistest is run with no arguments and there are a lot of windows open on the screen it errors with a message "Maximum number of clients reached" and sometimes crashes with a core dump.
This does not occur if geistest is run using the "-w windowid" command-line switch.

No entirely sure if I understand correctly, but if I try the suggestion I still get (see bug https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/utouch- geis/+bug/ 825359)

$ geistest -w $(xwininfo -root | grep "Window id" | awk '{print $4}')
*** glibc detected *** geistest: free(): invalid pointer: 0x00000000011a1508 ***
Did I do it right?
