Hi, I've been having a problem with crashing Xorg for a while. I really
don't have no idea why this happend. I tried to search this mailing
list, but I've not found anything.
So here's the problem, actually I already mentioned it. It just crashes.
I used to use GDM for long time but than the X started to crash, so I
thought that it might be because of GDM, so I switched to Slim, but
still the same. Now I'm using KDM... and .. no change.
It happens offten when I switch to console and than back, than X crashes
and KDM gets them back, but whole session is lost. Also it happens when
there is some higher usage on the computer.
I attach the Xorg.0.log, there is just only backtrace, not useful for
me, might for someone here. Also I attach my xorg.conf.
And here is some information about my system:
Debian testing/unstable mix (because of some applications)
here is list of installed packages realitioned to xserver

display d
# there are all xserver-xorg-video-* but I use intel driver so I think
they are not important.
Also I'm running 2.6.23.12 kernel, but happened with 2.6.22.1, 2.6.23.1,
2.6.23.11, so I think this is not relevant too.
If there is anything else what should help to find out the problem just
tell.
Thank you very much for help,
Dal.

Signal 11 is SIGSEGV, a segmentation violation that happens when a
process is trying to access illegal memory (usually address 0).

I installed Etch and than upgraded to Lenny and Unstable together as I
mentioned in the first email. It happens with recent version of xorg in
lenny. I've tried to install unstable Xorg and it seems to be ok now,
but it's soon to tell for sure.

First, (and I'm sorry for say that) I think that if you want to avoid
unnecessary problems you must stay in stable versions.
But if you refuse to back to a stable version I must ask which computer
do you have. Xorg is hardly connected with your hardware, for example I
know about some problems with the driver of the pads in the NoteBooks.
Second, I don't know which repository are you using, but I recommend
to you, to use only one. Remove all the packages from Xorg and the
packages related to the Xorg package. And finally install every think
again. Sorry, but I think that if you want to work with a unstable
version (I don't know why?) at least you must be sure that you are
using only one repository. Xorg is a very complex and sensible project.
After all this, I think that will be less difficult to help you.

Gustavo Halperin
