[gentoo-user] X.org is b0rked - BadIdChoice

["Bruno Lustosa" <bruno.lists@gmail.com>]

Hello.

After the last upgrade, X is completely broken. I can start it, but
applications randomly crash. In fact, not so randomly. It's almost as
if I was running xkill. If I click on the background, nautilus dies.
If I click the panel, it dies. Applications that are run directly will
also crash after a few seconds.
I don't know how to start, but it seems to be a X.org issue, as it
happens with other window managers as well, and even without a window
manager (tried to start X with just a xterm).
I tried to google for 'BadIdChoice', but couldn't find much.
I also tried to upgrade from xorg 7 to 7.1, but this still causes the
same errors.
Can anyone help me with these?
These are the kind of errors that show up on the console:

The program 'nautilus' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadIDChoice (invalid resource ID chosen for this connection)'.
  (Details: serial 1586 error_code 14 request_code 53 minor_code 0)
  (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.)
The program 'gnome-panel' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'RenderBadPicture (invalid Picture parameter)'.

The application 'gnome-session' lost its connection to the display :2.0;
most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed
the application.

the window manager.
FreeFontPath: FPE "/usr/share/fonts/misc/" refcount is 2, should be 1; fixing.
