Description Crutcher Dunnavant 2004-05-25 22:47:08 UTC
Description of problem:

On a Fujitsu P-Series Lifebook, X is unstable, and crashes frequently.
This has been an ongoing problem since Red Hat 9. The crash seems to
be related to the mouse, the more I use it, the more frequent it
happens, especially when I am using with X. First, the system will
start opening new windows (returning X errors) and corrupt the screen
under the mouse, then the session will segfault and end. I have tried
with and without software cursor. I have tried with the "ati" driver,
with the "vesa" driver, and with the driver from the Gatos project.

I am willing to capture dumps or whatever else is needed, but this
problem needs to be fixed.
