Bug Description

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-core

This morning ubuntu auto updater proposed me to upgrade

xserver-xorg-core version 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-12ubuntu8

to version

2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-12ubuntu8.1

Since the upgrade, when i try to run amule, i receive the following error to the terminal:

Initialising aMule
Checking if there is an instance already running...
No other instances are running.
The program 'amule' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 403 error_code 11 request_code 148 minor_code 5)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Also when run filezilla i receive the same message:

The program 'filezilla' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 201 error_code 11 request_code 148 minor_code 5)

When i rollback xserver-xorg-core to previous version (2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-12ubuntu8) and restart system, amule and filezilla works fine.

I'm running Ubuntu 7.10 with Nvidia GeForce 7600GS using restricted drivers from ubuntu repositories
