I noticed the same thing on 2.2.5-STABLE a few days old. With a matrox millenium (MGA - SVGA server) and XFree86 3.3.1 and a bits per pixel depth of 24 (startx -- -bpp 24) the acrobat display is messed up with predominantly blue letters; but with pixel depths of 16 and 32, it's OK. Using the Xinside (Xig) X server and 24 bit pixel depth it's OK. This is with 3.01 Acrobat (3.00 segfaulted as you saw). Mostyn P.S. Another X thing - netscape 4.04 will get a SEGV if running XFree86 3.3.1 24 bpp after restoring the stack on sigreturn because of a SIGALRM while having just read the awt/MToolKit class, and ... The Xig server sails through it? (This at http://www.onsale.com when it starts the first Java applet).
