X crashing

Ok, I'm running "Fedora legacy" (RH 9 updates) on my wife's computer, a
450MHz K6 w/ SIS graphics card.
X just crashes every so often. No reason, SIGHUP is all I see, nothing
meaningful in /var/log/messages, nor in /var/log/XFree86.0.log, not in
~/.xerrors (where I have it set up to pipe errors, no cores (sudo find /
-name \*core\*), NOTHING. I just upgraded X, turned off screensaves. She
was just sitting there doing email.
Plenty of space in /, /home, and /var. The only ownership complaint I
see is that her account owns /tmp/.ICE-unix instead of root.
Linux, 2.4.20-30.9 (Fedora Legacy)
XFree86 4.3.0.2.90.60 (Fedora Legacy)
mailtool: kmail (original RH 9)
WM kde, 3.1.12 (original RH 9)
It was doing the same on X 4.3.0.0.90.55.
Clues?
Note: I'm not planning on going to a 2.6 kernel - these are
single-processor machines, and I do *NOT* want anything near bleeding
edge, anyway: stability and speed on the existing hardware is paramount.

So how do you like the coup d'etat so far?
And more importantly, what are you planning to do about it?
