I implemented some of the suggestions that folks on the list were kind
enough to give and hopefully got a little closer to the core issue. I
made sure that I did not have any old Mesa/GL libraries in the
/usr/X11R6/lib directory. I set the AGP mode to 2. Setting the mode to 2
seemed to allow X to run continuously the longest without locking up. In
fact I used mode 2 all day and I don't believe X11 ever locked up. I
still wasn't sure whether the GL lib issue was a being a confuser, so I
changed the mode back to 4. X ran about 7 hours without locking up,
essentially running with just a XFCE terminal open with a "tar verify"
scrolling all night and the Xscreensaver running. When I logged in this
morning and brought up Mozilla, X locked-up a few seconds later. Lastly,
I checked to see that all the proper kernel modules were inserted, after
learning that kernel 2.6.x is different than 2.4.x in respect to the
DRI/AGP modules, but glxinfo still shows DRI is not working.
