When using X.Org 6.8.2 on my Gentoo machine, Maya 6.0 shows Startup Window but then crashes when the workspace should appear. When started from console, there is an error message saying "Signal: 11 (Unknown Signal)" and "attemptig to save to file ...". When using X.Org 6.8.0, everithing works fine, so probably some change in X.Org caused the problem. Additional information: I'm using a Radeon Graphics Card an an actual KDE, but with the Klipper turned off as that program also caused problems with Maya.
Forgot to add that I use the DRI driver instead ATI's proprietary one
Can you attach you confg, log, and any weird messages you see in your kernel log? Also does maya have any sort of log? You might try starting maya from a shell with the the env var LIBGL_DEBUG set to verbose, eg. LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose See that dri troubleshooting guide for more: http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/DriTroubleshooting

Created attachment 2622 [details] My last Xorg logfile
I just installed the proprietary ATI drivers and xorg 6.8.2, and now it works. So it seems to be a problem with the DRI part, as suggested by the gdb output.
