Podcasts What else would we talk about other than the massively [popular|controversial] article about X.org last week. We try and address a number of concerns about the article and common lines of reasoning / misunderstanding. Lastly, we move onto something completely different with topics on Google Chrome on Linux, IE6 and the two details we know about RockMelt: Rock. Melt.

Does X, or does it not, take down all the application an data within them when it crashes?


I understand the point you're making and that it is usually true. I just thought I'd point out that programs can be written to utilise a back-end which can easily run independently of a graphical front-end. Hence, important data can be saved in case of an X crash.
