From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030225 Description of problem: When I run the game Ur-Quan Masters, jump to another virtual com to killall it, then back to X, and wait a few second, the X crashes. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): XFree86-4.3.0-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install Ur-Quan masters (from the Fedora Project testing branch) 2. Run Ur-Quan Masters (uqm -f) 3. Jump to another virtual console 4. killall uqm 5. Jump back to X 6. X crashes Actual Results: X shutdown and restarted. Expected Results: X kept on going. Additional info: Ur-Quan Masters can be downloaded from http://download.fedora.us/fedora/redhat/9/i386/RPMS.testing/ (install all the uqm-* packages). Everything works fine if I omit the -f option, but the contrast between the black gamescreen and the bright desktop makes it hard to see what's happening. I'm using the nvidia binary driver from NVIDIA's home page, so it could be a problem with that too.

No, as a matter of fact this is not an NVIDIA binary driver -specific problem. It happens with the "nv" driver (which came with Red Hat) as well.
Attach your X server log and config file using the "nv" driver using bugzilla file attachment feature. Do this from a fresh reboot of the system without ever loading the nvidia binary driver module or any other 3rd party kernel modules. Please also attach the output of "lsmod" from within an xterm in XFree86 prior to running the game with the "nv" driver, and also attach your /var/log/messages file which may provide clues. Thanks.

Your X server installation is not "pure". The Nvidia binary driver installation has deleted or overwritten various modules that ship with Red Hat Linux with Nvidia replacements, including GLcore and others. This is evidenced by some of the warning/error messages in your X server log file. Before I can investigate this further, I'll require that you do a fresh installation of all XFree86 RPM packages that come with the distribution, thus overwriting all of Nvidia's proprietary X server modules and removing them from the equation entirely. You can use the --force commandline option to force rpm to reinstall already installed (but damaged) packages. Symbol __glXActiveScreens from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libdri.a is unresolved! Symbol __glXActiveScreens from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libdri.a is unresolved!
