My own exprerience with XFree86 4.2.1 core-dumping was with an Intel 82810 (i810? GMCH) AGP controller that was part of the motherboard of a Hewlett Packard Pavillion 6635. Over the holidays, I decided to "upgrade" the family desktop (err... deskunder) PC to be dual-boot Win98SE/FreeBSD. I discovered that even the most recently patched XFree86 4.2.1 in /usr/ports wouldn't work, and would core-dump. My only solution was to update XFree86 from *their* CVS repository (I'm keeping a copy myself) to 4.2.99 (which is their pre-release for 4.3, I think.) I just followed the instructions, and it works pretty well. Unfortunately, I can't build Mozilla 1.2b on this machine now, and haven't had time to check it out.
