XFonts segfault in unstable



Hello,

I am currently playing with Debian on one of our Ultra10s. First I installed the stable dist but the X server was quite unreliable, so I tried to upgrade to the unstable version to check out if this helps. (I know that this is dangerous but currently this machine is not used, so I have some time to do experiments ;-) ).
The problem now is that the xfonts-[100dpi|75dpi|base|scalable] packages 
all produce a segmentation fault in line 58 of the post installation 
script. I tried to find some info on this problem on the web and waited 
some days but nothing helped. Can anybody give me a hint?
How unstable is unstable anyway? Can I use this as my workstation or 
will it break down occasionally after an upgrade (my skills as 
UNIX/Linux admin are not big but existent, ao I might be able to fix 
small problems)?
Does XFree 4.0 support the Creator3D card? Can I use XFree 4.0 with the 
stable dist?
Thanks and if this should be a RTFM please attach URLs ;-)

  Peter
