Hello, I had recently filed bug 395260 to find a way to disable pixmap caching to X. See below:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395260

There was a post the above bug to reference this bug. I see the link to the diff and have downloaded source from mozilla. I would like to test the diff to see if this fixes the pixmap issue or not, but do not know how to go about this. I have been trying to use patch but get many errors. If anyone could post some quick steps to do so I would love to do some testing and report back.

The pixmap problem makes firefox on thin clients very unstable (and firefox causes the clients to freeze hard after sucking up all available memory).

Thanks,
Jim Kronebusch
