Since a few days, starting xemacs - either locally or from a remote machine - causes the local X server to crash. This seems to be independent of desktop environments, as I could reprodruce the crash with both KDE and FVWM2 so far. It also doesn't matter what the remote machine is (I tried to run different versions of xemacs from Solaris 9 (Sparc) and RHEL 4 (AMD 64) machines with the same result).

I need your xorg-server version, the version of whatever driver you're using, /var/log/Xorg.0.log (preferably one from a crashed system, it may be moved to Xorg.0.log.old) and /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Please reopen when those are attached.

However, I don't think the problem is related to video hardware, since I can reproduce the problem on to machines with different video hardware. Please let me know if you need anything else.

The video driver on the other machine is xf86-video-i810-1.6.0.
I see the same problem with the Opera 9 beta - I thought it was just something wrong with Opera, since none of my other browsers caused it. What USE flags is xemacs compiled with?
(In reply to comment #10) > What USE flags is xemacs compiled with? [ebuild R ] app-editors/xemacs-21.4.19 USE="X Xaw3d gpm jpeg ldap motif mule nas png postgres tiff -athena -berkdb -canna -dnd -freewnn -neXt -xface" However, I don't think it matters, because, as I wrote before, the problem is caused by starting xemacs either locally or remote, regardless of remote xemacs version or remote operating system.
Tried again yesterday, and the problem no longer exists. I can only guess, but it seems that the last libX11 update (to 1.0.3) fixed it.
