The core may not be useful at all if it crashed in a module. It would probably be better to pick up the module aware gdb and run X inside this module. But maybe we should wait a while until the debian XFree8 4.2 update comes out (Brandon?). Martin has emailed the logfile so I was able to take a look at it. As it looks like it happened while the server had been running for a while already. There was absolutely no indication of an unresolved symbol.
