[gentoo-user] xorg crashes

Not sure what's going on, hopefully it's a configuration mistake of some
kind.   Sometimes it crashes, sometimes it's intermittent.  My xlog is at
http://pastebin.com/9jsJE8mw
Not really sure how to debug it, all advice is appreciated

With the 2.6.36-gentoo-r8 kernel I would suggest that you configure KMS as 
explained here:

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml

it is likely that you would not need x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard or mouse 
drivers and that evdev will serve both devices.  In that case the crash that 
seems to happen after the mouse is being set up may go away.

I thought it might be a driver issue - not sure what's going on.   Trying to
find a known good virtualbox .conf file so I can compare.

Section "InputDevice"
Indentifier "Mouse0"
Driver "evdev"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7"

well, it is not a driver issue. Your server segfaults. Have you set strange 
flags? have you rebuild xorg-server and all the stuff it depends on with sane 
flags?

That, is an interesting question, because I HAVE been changing USE flags.
When the kernel was built it had a distinctly different use flag set.   Now
it's USE="mmx sse sse2 ssh X -gnome -kde -qt4 dbus jpeg lock session
startup-notification thunar udev -cdr -dvd alsa gtk"

I might be giving myself away as a gentoo noob here, but I haven't
technically built anything.    When you say, "rebuild" are you referring to
basically the same process as emerge?   That's how I got my drivers and
xorg, but when I think of building something I always think of
configure/make/make install, and I want to be sure I'm not doing the wrong
thing because of a misunderstanding

Can you paste our make.conf file ? and the output of " eselect profile list " ?

Well, re-running emerge on the driver set had at least two effects. 1) The
segfault address moved, and 2) the backtrace moved, 3) the error changed.

My xlog: http://pastebin.com/zs5zvEBE

My usefile: http://pastebin.com/vtvZsumP

My xorg.conf: http://pastebin.com/qwyE5nsX

Kinda wish I could stay and comb it, but if I don't get into traffic before
rush hour, it'll tack a good 30-45 min onto my commute length.  Will have to
go through it when I get home!

portage does all that for you when you call emerge.
