Mandrake 8.0 and 7.2 often totally crashes (because of XFree86 3.3.6
with 3D acceleration) running a 3D games on my computer. I don't know
why, but it seems often (not everytime) that Mandrake totally crashes
(just like MS Windows - totally freezes) when running Chromium or other
3D games.
Also, in 7.2 there's a /tmp race condition that'll allow user to mess up
because there's this /tmp/glxmemory. It seems it's been corrected in
8.0, but so far there's no advisory for users.
