This 1.13GHz i815 Piii with G400 AGP is multiboot which I've been updating
over the past couple of days, Fedora 21, openSUSE 12.3, 13.1 & 13.2. It's
been reliable for years, but tonight it has been acting like the power plug
has been pulled shortly after KDE finishes initializing my desktop. This
happened first in 13.2 a few times with 3.11.10 kernel, so I tried and got
same result in 13.1 with 3.11.6 kernel. Previously xorg.conf was written with
default depth 24, but tonight I changed it to 16, and only then did the
crashing start. I've currently booted back to 13.2 but with xorg.conf changed
back to default depth 24 and it hasn't crashed yet. So it seems like 16 bit X
with MGA is broken, while 24 is not. Am I missing something? I don't see any
open bugs that look anything like this, except for one ancient one:
