That was on a machine which has since been decommissioned, trying with either a Matrox Marvel graphics card or an antique S3ViRGE. There, the segfaults happened frequently but not invariably (but didn't start until the upgrade to Squeeze, and always stopped when I switched to another display manager); elsewhere things have gone differently. On a second i386 machine, I've seen the same versions of wdm working flawlessly with the same Matrox card. On a third, I've seen wdm failing in a slightly different fashion. This one is in fact a triple-boot Debian testbed PC with a Lenny partition, a Squeeze/Sid partition, and a Squeeze kFreeBSD partition; the graphics card is an onboard i8xx. In each case, regardless of the kernel and X version involved, wdm fails. It doesn't segfault, though - it just crashes over and over again when it gets to the point of setting up the login screen. No such problems occur with xdm, slim, nodm, or startx.
