Description Pacho Ramos 2009-09-26 08:07:23 UTC 
Comes from:
https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=44482

Simply open a terminal and launch "glxgears", then, close the window or press Alt+F4, the following is shown:
 $ glxgears 
Running synchronized to the vertical refresh.  The framerate should be
approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
XIO:  fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0.0"
      after 42 requests (40 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

This is still valid with mesa-demos-7.5.1 under Gentoo also

Thanks

This is completely normal.

It just means that glxgears doesn't respond to window manager when it ask it to close (because this is just unimplemented), thus xserver just closes connection to application.

Every X application could  be terminated this way if it doesn't terminate itself when WM asks it to do so.

So this is just cosmetic message.

OK, thanks a lot for the explanation :-)
