The application is Maya, the requirements are very particular.  They've 
only qualified certain specifications for Suse at all.  All of them are 
for 4.3.99.  I've done tonnes of version testing on 9.1 and the 
application crashes with Signal 11 (unknown signal, this is a openGL 
signal), if I have upgraded to X.org.

This is the exact same problem I've had with Fedora Core and Red Hat, 
the X version is very important here.

Thanks
