Hi, I'm using xmonad 0.8.1, GHC 6.10, Ubuntu intrepid, and every now and then I get an X error immediately after logging in and am bounced back to the login screen. Logging in again normally works fine. Here is .xsession-errors from one of those occasions:
/etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup... Setting IM through im-switch for locale=en_GB. Start IM through /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/all_ALL linked to /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/default. /home/jim/.xsession: line 9: 5756 Segmentation fault $CABAL_BIN/xmonad

And here is my .xinitrc:
#!/usr/bin/env bash xsetroot -cursor_name top_left_arrow -solid gray30 CABAL_BIN=/home/jim/.cabal/bin $CABAL_BIN/xmobar & gnome-settings-daemon & numlockx on & unclutter &
$CABAL_BIN/xmonad

The line .xsession-errors refers to is the last one, which launches xmonad. What's going on?
Thanks,

We need information to see what is going on. The most likely problem is a miscompiled xmonad, try cleaning, rebuilding, and reinstalling xmonad and contrib. Finally, execute "xmonad --recompile". If the problem persists, try to get a stack trace. Cheers, Spencer Janssen
