What were you trying to do?
What's wrong:
For apparently no reason my xterm died. No reason as in I was not even
typing on the keyboard, just clicked the mouse over the xterm. Here is
the error message that appeared on the console:
12:37 xterm1: warning, error event receieved:
12:37 X Error of failed request: BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length error)

12:37 Serial number of failed request: 56751
12:37 Current serial number in output stream: 56752
What should have happened:
The xterm shouldn't have died.
