crashes with 4.3.0-0pre1vX and gnome/kde



Hi!

I have 4.3.0-0pre1v1 and v3 tested and I am using wdm. Whenever I choose
gnome-session or kde it (=kde/gnome) crashes shortly after start (gnome
at splash screen, kde doesn't show anything).

This started with the apt-get update/upgrade three days ago. There are
no messages in wdm.log, XFree86.0.log (besides Sig11), xsession-errors
etc. I started bash -x Xsession gnome-session and got no useful
information (ended with exec gnome-session ... and crash).

On the other hand twm/wmaker etc IS working.

Interestingly on my desktop system where I do NO use experimental X
packages it is working (therefore I am writing to this list).

One maybe important point: I am using dri-trunk modules from 
	http://people.debian.org/~daenzer/dri-trunk-unstable/ ./
but as I said, twm/wmaker is working, so it seems to be specific to
gnome/kde. Therefore my (wild) guess is that it is connected to
libfreetype. (Wild wild guess).

What information I can provide in addition to help trace this problem?

hw: acer travelmate 654LCi
radeon graphic 7500M
debian/unstable
X from experimental
dri-trunk stuff from (see above)
kernel 2.4.23-pre7

(Please Cc me any comments, thank)

Thanks a lot and best wishes

Norbert
