RE: XFree86 4.0.3 segfault problem...

[Scott Stone <SStone@example.com>]

yeah, it's not XF86_Mach64, that was a mis-think on my part.  What I meant
to say was, this is XFree86 4.0.3 as reported by "X -version" and the
chipset in question is an ATI Mach64 LT (mobile) chipset with 8mb of video
ram.

It's the stock one that came with Redhat 7.1, I haven't tried a full source
rebuild of X on this box yet, although I may.  

forgive my ignorance but what is a "DDC" problem?  sounds like I heard that
acronym before but I can no longer place it as my head is currently filled
with work-related drivel...

XF86_Mach64 with 4.0.3?  Highly unlikely -- are you certain that the
executable is not "XFree86" using ati_drv.o?

DDC problem, but first I'd make sure that your Xserver is okay.
