Well, all I can say is that you should try to upgrade to Xorg-7.2 (it is even faster on older hardware -- and all those "exceeds DDC maximum 0MHz" shouldn't be in your log AFAIK) or to somehow check your memory, as Norberto has already suggested (that's why I cc him). (And maybe that I once experienced that the mouse had caused similarly weird situation, so you can try to disconnect it or to add Option "AllowMouseOpenFail" "true" in ServerFlags section.) Btw, have you used this machine before -- you know that hardware is ok? Nikola Le=C4=8Di=C4=87
