On the plus side, the texture problem that I had seen with
neverputt/neverball seems to be resolved.

This is probably the same lockup that I have seen. Unfortunately, I can't test anything for another two weeks or so.

It may be worth it to test whether the lockup is due to some (race?)
interaction between the 3D client and the X server. In particular, test if
the lockup also happens with Solo. If the lockup happens with Solo as well,
we at least know that it's not caused by the X server doing something.

A less rigourous, but easier way is to launch "bare X" - put a single xterm line in your .xinitrc (or .xsession) and login.


Then start the game from xterm window. If it does not lock up immediately, you can be reasonably sure that X does not mess with the hardware while the game is playing.
