[Bug 620478] Re: xorg crashes randomly with seg fault

 

Some more updates:

- I suspected a broken CD drive to influence the behavior, disconnected
the CD and again saw some crashes.

- I tried all 3 performance levels (see bug 526857 comment 5), X still
crashes in all these configurations.

- I observed one freeze (not crash) while logging into KDE, no mouse
action at that time. (see above hypothesis about a connection between
mouse activity and the bug). Because it was a hard freeze (not even sys-
req emergency umount or emergency reboot worked), no traces of the
problem could be found on the machine.

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

Given the lack of activity in this report, let me ask whether there is
any use in providing more info in this bug?

I intentionally did not try any other versions of any software involved,
because the infected machine could be a good testbed for future attempts
to narrow down what exactly is broken here.

However, I can't wait forever, since, as mentioned repeatedly, the machine is in this state unusable for any serious work.
I will have to install a working OS on this machine soon.
