Description Jimmy C. Chau 2011-05-08 08:07:22 UTC
X usually works properly for me, it has crashed (segmentation fault) twice with what appears to be the same bug.  The first was time was with xorg-server-1.9.4 and the second with xorg-server-1.9.5.  In both times, the segmentation fault appears long after X starts.  

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. startx

This segmentation fault happens very rarely (once in March and once in May) and I don't know how to reproduce it.  
Actual Results:  
X appears to work properly (GUI applications run, etc.) until the segmentation fault occurs.  When the segmentation fault occurs, X quits abruptly, returning me to the text console with the segmentation fault error message.  

Expected Results:  
X should continue to work properly and not exit until I tell it to.

I'll attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log from both times.

Please post your output of `emerge --info x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel' too.

I'm sorry about my slow response (work and classes have left me with very little free time).

Are you still having troubles with the latest ~arch ebuild (2.20.14 as of today). If so, please let us know and open a bug report upstream [1].

Thanks
