[gentoo-user] xorg-server 1.8.1 random segfaults

[Nikos Chantziaras]

Does anyone else get random segfaults all the time with xorg-server-1.8.1?

xorg-server-1.8.0 is working just fine.  I'm on ~amd64 with 
x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.13.0 (also tried live ebuild from x11 overlay.)

I just upgraded today to 1.8.1 so I have only a few hours of testing, but
no crashes yet.  My video card is nvidia with a different driver, of course,
but my guess would be the ati driver.  I've seen a lot of people complaining
about ati drivers on the Xorg mailing list lately.
