Description Marco Squarcina 2004-09-04 01:54:00 UTC
I'm running my system with some applications opened like:
(usually  this ones) fluxbox, xchat, aterm, gkrellm, firefox-bin, and sylpheed.

Suddenly xorg crashes ( use xorg-x11-6.7.0-r2 , but I had a similar problem with other versions...). 
Looking at /var/log/Xorg.0.log I can see:

...
(**) Mouse1: Buttons: 5
(**) Mouse1: SmartScroll: 1 
(II) Keyboard "Keyboard1" handled by legacy driver
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Mouse1" (type: MOUSE)
(II) Mouse1: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded
(II) 3rd Button detected: disabling emulate3Button

   *** If unresolved symbols were reported above, they might not
   *** be the reason for the server aborting.

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11.  Server aborting


Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support 
         at http://wiki.X.Org
 for help. 
Please also check the log file at "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for additional information.

(II) RADEON(0): Wrote: rd=12, fd=101, pd=3

-----------------------------------

I use gcc3.4 (but I had a similar problem with 3.3...)... maybe it could be an hardware issue?

My video card is an ATI RADEON 9200se (so no 3D acceleration :/ )

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
xorg crashes sometimes

Expected Results:  
to have a stable X

The same here, but in IceWM not crashes, it hangs. The keyboard and the mouse not responds anymore. And I have to press the Reset button.

I use: x11-xorg 6.7.99.904 compiled with gcc-3.4.1.
