Description FreeDesktop Bugzilla Database Corruption Fix User 2005-07-15 05:22:24 UTC
Hello,

If I have this in my xorg.conf file, everything works correctly. 
If I uncomment the commented line, and start Gnome in .xinitrc, then Gnome
starts running. 
I can run Gnome applications (e.g. Evolution). If I in this state execute any
KDE application, X will crash. 

Other situation:I start KDE (startkde in .xinitrc). KDE starts to load. By the
time it's in the last stage of loading (there are icons indicating the
progress), it also crashes X with a signal 11 (segfault). 

In the previous Xorg version this bug was not present(atleast I didn't change
configuration and after an upgrade it stopped working).

There is no bug history thus close this.

The contents of this bug seem to have been lost in the bugzilla disk crash.
xorg-team archives show that it orignally said:

Ron isn't experiencing this problem more. See the answer from a mailresponse I
got. Closing

No, I am not experiencing this anymore. I followed the steps in the
bugreport again, and was unable to reproduce. In short, probably the
bug has been solved.

I have this version now: X Window System Version 6.9.0 (Debian
6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 20060114230205 David Nusinow <dnusinow@debian.org>)
