Hi everyone, 

  I'm currently fighting severe problems getting XFree86 to run on my 
i386 system; the X server keeps crashing with a signal 11.  I've found
a hint of a comparable situation indicating that it's worth a try to
compile a kernel without agp support, but that didn't help, either. 

  The server tries moving around MTRR stuff and dies whilst doing so (
(WW) R128(0): remove MTRR a0000 - c0000
(WW) R128(0): set MTRR f0000 - 100000
are the last entries in the log before it dies). 

  As I don't know what constitues helpful information, I've placed my
dmesg output, the entire logfile from the X run and a sniplet of the
ktrace | kdump output of running the sesion onto the web at

dmesg      http://www.fimsch.net/~konrad/XF86/dmesg
ktrace	   http://www.fimsch.net/~konrad/XF86/XF86.ktrace
log	   http://www.fimsch.net/~konrad/XF86/XFree86.8.log

as well as

XF86config http://www.fimsch.net/~konrad/XF86/XF86Config-4 

  Has anybody gotten a similar or the same problem solved? 

Thanks,  
 Konrad
