I can't recall if that's happened to me, but I know I've had
X lock up so badly I had to telnet in and kill it. X drivers
run with root privs :-(
(would a kernel module allow debugging of such problems via Kernel debugging

IMHO none of our graphics stuff should be moved to the kernel;
I don't think any of it's in wineserver anyway, is it?
Shades of NT4.0 :-)
