That is a known bug with Composite which causes the server to crash when a 32 bits ARGB visual is requested by an application. I fixed that bug in X.org CVS but it's not (yet) fixed in 6.8.x branch. Just don't enable Composite for now, it's not terribly useful anyway on this version :) > Nevertheless, Michel, your intervention rises a question: > > Michel Dnzer wrote: > > > You'd have to get a backtrace from > > the X server, > > How can one have a backtrace of the X server.
