Bug#652279: gnome-shell: Crash on xsetroot -cursor_name ....

[clohr]

Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.0.2-8
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

The plain old xsetroot command seems to cause hazardous effects.

First, try "xsetroot -cursor_name cross" (or another cursor name).
The windows are flashing, but we get the selected cursor.
Try again one or two times, then gnome-shell crash.

Regards
Christophe
