It's not just with an i810 that the X server ends up crashing. And I do
believe there may well be a bug in Xorg, in the X server (as well as any
bug there might be in xfce4-terminal or elsewhere in Xfce).
I have a SiS 6326, rather than an i810, and xfce4-terminal in Xubuntu
7.04 crashes the X server. As my saved Xfce session included an
xfce4-terminal window, it was a bit of a problem! So, via one of the
virtual terminals, I installed Gnome as a temporary alternative. In one
Gnome session, I opened an xfce4-terminal and the X server didn't crash.
But when opened in Xfce, the X server does crash. The Gnome terminal
doesn't crash the X server in either Gnome or Xfce.
I do believe there may well be a bug in Xorg, in the X server, as its
log reported a "Fatal server error". (Just because the X server's
crashed by xfce4-terminal and not Gnome's terminal doesn't mean there
isn't a bug in Xorg. Bugs just don't have to be that well-behaved.)
The tail end of the log is pasted at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16529/ .
Surely X clients such as xfce4-terminals should not be causing "Fatal
server error"s and crashing the X server. It just looks like a bug in
the X server to me, that xfce4-terminal under Xfce is managing to
trigger.
Oh, and it's Xubuntu 7.04, the actual release, installed as a
distribution upgrade to 6.10. (I did the upgrade two days ago, on the
very day 7.04 was released.)
