XFree86 hangs / How to use Xfree 4.2.0
Hi !
My X-Server hangs sometimes. I can still move the mouse, but the cursor
stays in its last state. It doesn't react on any keypresses, except the
allmighty Alt-SysRq-S U B, which is the only way to reboot without risking
a looong fsck. I'm using Debian sid, currently with X 4.1.0. I have a Sony
Vaio PCG-F403 with a Neomagic 256AV video card.
I thought, maybe this very annoying error might go away if I upgrade to X 4.2.0.
So, Is it safe to use the newest version from www.xfree86.org or would I confuse
or even break apt-get,dselect,dpkg & co. ?
Or has anybody had this problem, too, and found a cure ?
Thx for any help...
Martin
