I can crash X reliably -  probably because of this bug.

Jaunty
Dual screens.
mga driver <<<<<<< note (It might not be a nvidia problem...
hp 2035 monitors
xinerama
650 Mhz CPU (old thing)
G550 AGP video card.

Open terminal window on primary screen. 
tail -f /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Open another terminal window in the other screen, hold down the shift key with a wedge of paper and you will probably see errors in the other
terminal windows. Leave it like that and after a while the mouse pointer might be constrained to one window. This can be released as described by ALT-dragging a screen around for a while.

Grab the window and madly drag it between screens until X crashes.

Sometimes it takes 5 min to make it crash.
