This is the message I'm seeing repeatedly:
Feb 16 12:16:02 localhost /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemUIServer.app/Contents/MacOS/SystemUIServer: kCGErrorIllegalArgument : CGSGetWindowGeometry: Invalid window
What's going on here?

Thats a common thing to find in the system log, don't ask me why though!
Nothing to worry about.

I've had *tons* of those in my system.log until a while ago. I think it stopped when I installed 10.2.3 . I noticed the problem, because my HDD wouldn't go to sleep anymore :o)
You guys still have that entry now?

Mar 16 01:31:54 Justin-Barhams-Computer WindowServer[196]: Reserved range exhausted. (0xbbe05000 to 0xbc19b000 goes out of bounds)
hrm...

Ignore the spewings that programmers leave in there for debugging purposes. They don't really mean much to the average joe.

But we at MacNN Forums are not the average Joe. If nothing else, we are more curious.  I'd like to know what this crud means, too.

It means exactly what it says - an illegal parameter was passed and a reserved range was exhausted.
What good does that info do you? Absolutely none, unless you happen to be writing the System UI server code, or the window server code.
Some things simply aren't meant to have any meaning to users.

SO is there a way to remove the "debug" code?

the entries get interesting at one point: when your harddisk doesn't go to sleep anymore because the file is being written to constantly like in my case above.
recently i installed a usb gps driver package and did some wardriving with kismac and the gps connected. while the gps was delivering gps coordinates, something blew about a megabyte a minute into my logfile. this can slow down the machine quite a bit :o)
