This is devoid of almost any useful information.. which graphics card
are you using?  What are the contents of your XFree86 log
(/var/log/XFree86.0.log)?  What are the contents of your XF86Config
file?

Its also usually a good idea to check the bug database, if this has
already been reported a temporary workaround may be in there.  Or you
could provide additional information to make the debugging process go
faster.  ^,^
