Good idea. I did one pass through the screensavers that way, letting each one run a couple of seconds until it seemed to become repetitive. None of this crashed my X server, which at least seems to tell me that it is not one particular screensaver always triggering the problem.
But: twice during that test I was called away, left the thing running, and came back to find the X server had exited again, apparently after the "real" screensaver had kicked in. Twice in a day, that's much more than ever before. So you may have found me a way to trigger the crash with greater probability.
Thanks, T.
