I built a kernel on Monday and suffered from the ``crashing X'' phenomenon. Only for me, it was worse than others have reported because it didn't actually crash the system, only the server. Since I use xdm, that got me into an infinite loop which I could not easily break out of since the server was constantly being restarted and switching VTs. I haven't tried to build another kernel since then, as I've seen no evidence that anyone has actually figured out the real problem. -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
