I don't seem to be able to do that (following "the book" at
<http://wiki.x.org/wiki/DebuggingTheXserver>).

When attaching to a running Xair from a remote machine, I cannot
reproduce the bug, as it happens at startup. Running "gdb /usr/bin/Xair"
from a remote machine doesn't seem to trigger the bug.

Starting Xair in gdb from the local machine inhibits me from getting
back to gdb. And using a script as described in
<http://wiki.x.org/wiki/DebuggingTheXserver#head-e988cb1d62739154287e8231cb2cdd9732b65428> gives me some output, but none concerning the error.

And as the error doesn't make Xair dump core either, I have no core file
which I can run gdb against.

Any hints? I'd really like to help, as I really like to see some eye
candy :)
