re: GLX -- I also had such GLX issues with older Xorg on FC2; newest
update with 6629 driver solved them all for me. Days/weeks uptime with
recent ruby.vz kernels, play games, any console, all works, all stable!
Have been going from one kernel update to the next with no reset or
crash inbetween.

FC3 is obviously another story :

This is not a ruby problem either, as I tried removing ruby and kernel
remains unstable. It's a mystery.

I have one stable FC3 kernel tree/build. I am going to look closely at
it and see if I can find out what makes it stable while five other FC3
based kernels are unstable all with the same symptoms.

I would need serial port debug output or crash dump patch to provide
debugging info, yes? I can't get to a console to see output.
