Bug#345640: xserver-xorg: New Xorg crashes with kernel 2.6.14, but not with 2.6.12



Hello!

First of all, my machine:
- IBM ThinkPad T42p
- PCI:*(1:0:0) ATI Technologies Inc M10 NT [FireGL Mobility T2] rev
   128, Mem @ 0xe0000000/27, 0xc0100000/16, I/O @ 0x3000/8 
- 2.6.15-rc7 manually compiled with make-kpkg (but the same results
   with a Debian official 2.6.14-2-686)
- unstable daily upgraded
- Eclipse [1] as Windows Mangaer

In my case, X.org freezes after about 10min and I cannot resolve it
but an hard shutdown (pressing the power button >4s).  And I have no
errors in the logs :-(

I downgraded xserver-xorg only to experimental (6.8.99.903.dfsg.1-1)
and the X server seems to nicely work since about 1h.  So the problem
could be in the transition rc3-final.

Sure, at least to have a working X11 in the while :-)

BTW, I should say that the same happens if I try 2.6.14-2-686 o
2.6.15-rc7 with the radeon DRM module compiled in: the screen goes
black when xdm starts and the system is completely freezed.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca

PS, I didn't provided the whole bunch of reportbug informations, but I
can do if necessary.
