What stupid joke?
It's not stupid and it's not a joke.
I've had similar problems with Linux sometimes. They almost always were
because of buggy apps that failed to free their shared memory allocations
(and failed to set them on auto-free) when sending images through XSHM. I
don't recall whether I had to restart X11 or restart the whole system
though. Perhaps there was also a limit of SHM usage that I could have
increased somewhere, but I didn't know, so I just rebooted.
