Here a some threads to the XFree86 mailing lists which suggest that the Signal 11's are kernel related.=20 Downgrading to a 2.2 series kernel solves these problems: http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/xpert/2001-September/011053.html http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/xpert/2001-September/011229.html Here's a snippet from my posting to the list: =20 ---- > Dell PowerEdge 6300 (Quad Xeon 500) with ATI Rage 128 > IBM Netfinity 5600 (Dual PIII 667) with Matrox MMS Quad Monitor > Tyan Tunderbolt S1873UANG-R (Dual PIII 600) with Matrox Marvel G400 I'll bet it goes away if you don't use a 2.4 SMP kernel. That is, use a 2.4 UP kernel or a 2.2 UP/SMP kernel. --- And this turned out to be the case. Is there anything that I could do help fix this? Is there anyone else on this list that has had similar problems and has overcome this? Thanks for listening. Jeffrey H.
