Comment #2 on issue 279 by seschwar: Some GTK2 apps crash X when XMonad's stderr is not redirected to /dev/null http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=279 And it doesn't matter where stderr is redirected. I've captured the output when I did what makes XMonad crash. However, since I redirected stderr it didn't crash anymore.
