As the log said, the unresolved symbol may not have been the cause of the crash. > I have removed Red Hat and > only left its XF86Config as attached.

Now try adding Load "xaa". I'm sure this won't fix your SIGSEGV (11), though. To pinpoint the crash, try running XFree86 in strace. At least on Linux, strace writes a detailed list of all kernel calls to stderr. For even more fine-grained debugging, recompile your X server its requisite libraries with -g -ggdb -lefence added to the gcc command line, that is, if you're using gcc and gdb. -lefence means use ElectricFence for malloc, realloc, and free (get it from perens.org). Then either save the core file (first enable core dumping) or run the X server inside gdb (you may have to do so over telnet or through a serial connection because XFree86 takes over the screen). Give us a stack trace and a line number (use the bt command in gdb), upload the core file to a web site, and/or try to hunt down the true cause of the crash yourself. > I love BSD and decide to use NetBSD when i got message from Alan Barrett > http://news.gw.com/netbsd.ports.i386/30161 , but after when i tried to > configure XF86, it told me hard to find suitable screen. I return to FB5 > then. Ask Alan for his XF86Config file. Ask what version of XFree86 he is using, whether he got it from xfree86.org or a BSD site, and whether or not he patched it. Also ask if he did anything special during a compile. His email address from the news article is [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
