EDIT: Recompiled amsn-cvs, tcl/tk 8.5 and xorg-server without -fweb and it seems to be more stable. I suggest staying away from -fweb, and Ive searched a bit and many others also suggest staying away from it.

Computer runs perfectly fine if amsn isn't running. Soon as I load amsn and log in, anywhere from 1 minute to 5 hours later xorg-server crashes. Sometimes xdm restarts, sometimes I left at console, sometimes I get a garbled console frame buffer and have to reboot (system isnt hung although screen is).

Weird thing, if not signed in, X doesnt seem to crash, only when amsn is logged in (could be wrong here, didnt really test it too much).

I use xfce4-svn.
Happens with both Xorg7 and Xorg6.8.2.
Error msg in Xorg6.8.2 is Fatal Server error: Caught signal 11.
From Xorg7:

*** If unresolved symbols were reported above, they might not
*** be the reason for the server aborting.

Backtrace:
0: /usr/bin/X(xf86SigHandler+0x85) [0x80b919b]

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11. Server aborting

Happens with composites on or off, happens with nvidia or nv, happens with tcl/tk 8.4 or 8.5 with threading enabled or disabled. Happens with archck3, nitro3 and no2 2.6.15 kernels.

I have vesa-tng frame buffer enabled at 144x900. There are no other problems in xorg7.
