Description of problem: The X11 server crashes when I press any of the extended keys on the Logitech Cordless keyboard (Logitech Cordless Desktop MX, this one: http://www.ixbt.com/peripheral/logitech/cd-mx/img1.jpg). Alas it's not my computer so I don't know with which version this bug has been introduced, I was told that X11 "sometimes crashes" and went to investigate. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.1.1-47.5.fc6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot into FC6 2. Even on the GDM screen (works in GNOME too) press any of the extended so-called "Internet" keys, or any of the so-called "Multimedia" keys. Actual results: X11 crashes Expected results: Shouldn't :) Additional info: I tried to switch the keyboard model to "pc105" - nothing changed, still crashes. I'm attaching xorg.conf and the X11 log with the crash report at the end.
