X errors under Dapper 6.06

Thanks Terence for the response.
I tried the fsck, but that is unfortunately not the solution in my case.

I had this a while ago, it was fixed when I ran fsck.
You can only run it on an unmounted partition so you can either do it by
remounting read-only, or an easier way is to shutdown & restart with the
-F option.
e.g. sudo shutdown -r -F now
