Thanks for the reply. I don't think it is the Xserver as I have tried KDE, Mate, and XFCE on the same machine and this doesn't happen to them. Can't speak to Windows or Mac as this is at home and I am 100% Linux at home. I did recently switch graphics cards from AMD to Nvidia but acceleration seems fine. I can run Mesa and Vulkan apps with no issues. I have noticed if I have to run these scripts several times over the course of a day the system does get a bit flaky and I have to restart the Xserver. If I don't have to run the scripts I have no trouble with stability over several days, don't usually leave it running longer than that.

Hi John,

Aye, I've seen this before. If you run penguin command in full mode, that
sometimes happens. I don't know if it's the application or a fault in the x
server. I have seem the same thing happen in MS and apple too.
