Java crashes X server

[Hans D. <han...@we...>]

Hi!

I have successfully set up kernel 2.6.3 with the corrseponding ruby from 
cvs, and
I was able to get two local XFree86 sessions working with 1 Ati Radeon 
9800Pro (Ati propriatory driver),
and one Ati Radeon 7500 All-InWonder (SVGA driver for TV-OUT). 
Everything is working beautifully,
except that any graphical java application (swing/awt/browser applets) 
will crash the X server on which the
application was running imediatly.

I use the precompiled 4.3.0 X server available from the backstreet-ruby 
homepage (http://startx.times.lv/).. Maybe I should
try to compile my own.. but I doubt it will help. I run an up-to-date 
Gentoo system with the blackdown-jre 1.4.1 btw.

The point is, that everything is rock-solid, and can be stable for 
weeks/months. Only executing a graphical java app will crash
the X server.. Has anyone seen this before?

I appriciate any help on this!
