i've experienced the same problem on the tcx server...i didn't report it
because i actually got around to recompiling the Xserver with -g and not
stripping it, but never managed to actually start debugging the problem.
(ss4, builtin tcx 8bit). exact same post-crash symptoms, but the keyboard
won't work for VC switching...remote login & startx fixes the keyboard
and the machine keeps running..
