Package: xserver-xorg-video-glint
Version: 1:1.2.2-2

Since upgrading to the latest unstable version of X, the X server crashes upon start, giving a "fatal sever error" and an incomprehensible-to-me backtrace.  The only thing I can garner from the error message is that something happened in the glint module.  The problem does not seem to occur if I start the X server in a way that is presumably independent of the graphics drivers (eg. by running a VNC session).

The problem began after I upgraded from the previous unstable version of X to the current unstable version.  I haven't tried downgrading to see if it fixes the problem because the magnitude of the dependency issues I would have to unravel is pretty intimidating, but a reinstall of the xserver-xorg-video-glint package did not change anything.

I have attached a copy of my xorg.conf and a crash log to this email; hopefully that will also have the proper hardware information.  But just to be complete, the graphics card identifies itself like this in lspci:

00:0f.0 VGA compatible controller: 3DLabs GLINT R3 (rev 01)

and the monitor is an SGI flat panel plugged in via a DVI connector.
