Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.1.0-16woody3 Severity: normal The X server immediately and reliably crashes when I select either font 'Drift' or 'Tixus' (from xfonts-artwiz 1.4) in a Tcl/Tk client (Trebuchet, a MUD client). It seems that the rendering in the preview pane causes this.
I normally use the NVIDIA driver, so I switched to the VESA driver and the crash still happens. If I select 'tixus' in Galeon it doesn't crash, so perhaps this is a missing range-check in the font system?
