Description Matthias Hopf 2005-10-21 15:25:25 UTC
Starting glxinfo hangs for several seconds, if the Xserver is not running on
display :0. glxgears seems to take a few seconds before starting as well.  It
seems to try to open every possible display, starting with :0 .

For example, start 'Xorg :93' and 'DISPLAY=:93 glxinfo'.

This is even more problematic with Xgl. Starting 'DISPLAY=:93 Xgl' hangs
forever, because it first tries to XOpenDisplay (:0.0) due to a xglQueryVersion,
and as the Xgl's server port is alreay open, the connection does not immedeately
fail -> deadlock.
