There is a bug in the TTF code that may crash XF86 4.02 when an application
tries to generate a font list when certain (buggy?) ttf fonts are
installed. After much trial and error I found which font caused XF86 to
crash on my machine when Mulberry was gathering the font information. Once
I removed the font, I had no more crashes. BTW, I am running the nightly
Mozilla builds and except for some bugs, it seems to very very stable and
usable. So much so, that it became my main browser.

Yup! That's what it is says. I'm not sure why, but mozilla seems to crash my XFree86-4.0.2 faster than any other app. If I open mozilla's latest nightly and shake the window around a bit X restarts without fail. Perhaps this problem will be resolved with SuSE 7.1 when it gets here. I sure hope so.
BTW, does anybody know if the build of X would be effected by the kernel? I know the kernel build produces an r128.o for the DRI module. I've tried building that directly into the kernel and that didn't fix the problem. I would not be working so hard on this just to get the latest X to work. I'm doing it so I can learn. Nonetheless it is very frustrating.
