This is pretty minimalistic backtrace: Backtrace: 0: /usr/bin/Xorg(xorg_backtrace+0x26) [0x4e9dc6] 1: /usr/bin/Xorg(xf86SigHandler+0x6f) [0x47debf] 2: /lib64/libc.so.6 [0x306c8332f0] Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting
Since I couldn't use GIMP, I tried Inkscape. Same problem; click in an image, and X crashes: Backtrace: 0: /usr/bin/Xorg(xorg_backtrace+0x26) [0x4e9976] 1: /usr/bin/Xorg(xf86SigHandler+0x6f) [0x47ddaf] 2: /lib64/libc.so.6 [0x306c8332f0] Fatal server error: Caught signal 11.

I just wanted to point out that if I enable kms and UXA, the problem does not occur. UXA isn't usable yet (lots of redraw and corruption issues), but it does fix this problem.
Same here but on nvidia graphics, switching the component to general Xorg. Crash happens for nv, vesa and nouveau. With nouveau I can see this msgs in console: [drm] nouveau_fifo_free: freeing fifo 1 [drm] nouveau_fifo_free: freeing fifo 0
When debugging the core I got this BFD: Warning: /var/cache/abrt/ccpp-1239031295-10052/binary_data1 is truncated: expected core file size >= 61943808, found: 122880. :/. All cores from this crash are like this.
For my graphics card (G45/X4500HD), the problem is resolved in rawhide by running with KMS and UXA (no xorg.conf), which is now usable as long as you don't run Compiz: kernel-2.6.29.1-52.fc11.x86_64 libdrm-2.4.5-4.fc11.i586 libdrm-2.4.5-4.fc11.x86_64 mesa-dri-drivers-7.5-0.7.fc11.i586 mesa-dri-drivers-7.5-0.7.fc11.x86_64 mesa-libGL-7.5-0.7.fc11.i586 mesa-libGL-7.5-0.7.fc11.x86_64 mesa-libGLU-7.5-0.7.fc11.i586 mesa-libGLU-7.5-0.7.fc11.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.6.99.902-2.fc11.x86_64
Closing as per comment #6.
Adam: what about those of us who aren't using the same video cards as Mace Moneta?
