    Package:x-server xfree86

    Hello.

    Sometimes my xserver xfree86 crashes.
    I'm using a S3 Inc. Savage 4 (rev 02), the crash is reproduceable when
    sorting some data with the konqueror.
    I'm using konqueror 3.2.2 on kde 3.2.3.
    Watching top in a x-shell at the same time, I see that the xfree86 runs
    up to 99.7% CPU-time; and someone the system gets frozen.
    I'm using this x-server :

    teneriffa:/home/thomas# X -version

    This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any

    With the suse-live cd 9.1 I have no problems. It recocgnizes my savage
    S3, uses konqueror 3.21 and kde 3.21 with x-server 4.3.99.909 (4.4.0
    RC2) build 06.April.2004

    Please help, I don't want to install Suse just for this x-server

    regards, Thomas Hechelhammer
