Still hoping for an answer, as the PC locked up hard a few more times, always when trying to exit the X server (normal logout/all clients terminated, ctl-alt-bs, init 6). The PC is a Dell Optiplex 740. Its onboard video is NVidia NVS 210S nVidia GForce 6150, but that is disabled when an add-in video card is present (wasn't present in the 'pciconf -lv' I posted last week). What can I do to determine whether the X11 problem is "bus_dmamem_alloc failed to align memory properly" or something else with the card? thanks, Jeff
