for the brave or those shutout from the 2 hr random X crashing problem.

Just a note regarding a CVS release of xorg-x11 that is in development. 
I tried the CVS version on three computers and had success on two out of 
three boxes. The Dell with the 828656 Graphics controller did not seem 
to crash randomly any longer. Also a laptop using the radeon driver 
seemed to work better and some more applications that require 3D worked 
w/ the CVS version that did not work with the latest FC2 release or 
previous FC3 testing releases.

The failure was for boxes that use the Intel 815 Chipset. They worked 
fine until X was closed. On an attempt to restart X, it was X no more.


Try if you dare or X crashed before, so no loss.
