*** How to solve (workaround)?**
Earlier versions of Xephr (21.1.1) do work without any problems (and
without error messages), i.e. after installing
zypper install --oldpackage https://download.opensuse.org/history/20211220/tumbleweed/repo/oss/x86_64/xorg-x11-server-extra-21.1.1-3.1.x86_64.rpm
in current Tumbleweed (20220110), it works well again.
If possible please fix Xephyr (mabe even by switching back
to the old version - a borken version does not help anyone).
Thank you for your amazing work.
