This is still quite elusive. It only happens once every couple of days, and the only thing that seems to be clear is that it's triggered by a GL screensaver. So if it's ok I'll continue sharing X crash backtraces while I go on groping for a lead. Here's my next one, this time with kernel 2.6.25-rc8:
0: /usr/bin/X(xf86SigHandler+0x81) [0x80e6d81] 1: [0xb7f22400] 2: /usr/lib/xorg/modules//extensions/libGLcore.so(_mesa_set_enable+0x1343) [0xb50aa673] 3: /usr/lib/xorg/modules//extensions/libGLcore.so(_mesa_Disable+0x5a) [0xb50abc1a] 4: /usr/lib/xorg/modules//extensions/libglx.so [0xb7ba8b98] 5: /usr/lib/xorg/modules//extensions/libglx.so(DoRender+0xdd) [0xb7ba145d] 6: /usr/lib/xorg/modules//extensions/libglx.so [0xb7ba157c] 7: /usr/lib/xorg/modules//extensions/libglx.so [0xb7ba5a6d] 8: /usr/bin/X [0x815809e] 9: /usr/bin/X(Dispatch+0x1af) [0x808f68f] 10: /usr/bin/X(main+0x47e) [0x807717e] 11: /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xe0) [0xb7cb6fe0] 12: /usr/bin/X(FontFileCompleteXLFD+0x1e5) [0x8076501]
As for Pavel's suggestion of disabling heap randomization, given the current crash rate I'd have to try that for several weeks before I could be reasonably sure that it helped. I think it'll be more useful if I go on looking for a way to reproduce the crash more reliably. Perhaps I should start playing some GL based games. :-)
Hope this helps (slim chance, I know) T.
