I've run across what appears to be a bug with Xorg on SXCE B61. While
installing Sun's web proxy 4.0.4, Xorg blew up, and kicked me out,
requiring me to login again.
I'd seen similar behavior with the bundled Firefox, but I was unable to
reliably repeat it. I downloaded Mozilla.org's latest firefox build and
the problem did not reappear with firefox. With the proxy server's java
installer splash screen the failure is repeatable. B61 is installed on
a Ferarri 3400, 768 MB RAM.
Anything that attempts to load a TrueType font through the classic X
font system (i.e. libX11 font calls, not libXft) is likely to crash
the 64-bit Xorg in build 61. Java is a very common culprit.
The fix is in build 62 - the workaround until then is to switch back
to the 32-bit Xorg server:
svccfg -s x11-server setprop options/server=/usr/X11/bin/i386/Xorg
