Yes, I installed 4.7 in the hopes that the problem in 4.6 was fixed. I didn't actually know that there is a 4.8-beta out at the time. It did help a slight bit since I actually got error logs and the computer didn't _completely_ freeze up.

The xorg.conf file used there was generated with X -configure. I tried that after the default didn't work.

Running just X (as apposed to xdm) also segfaults. In my inexperienced opinion, I think it's the X server itself that segfaults.

Okay, so I should email him the crash dump, along with the dmesg? And I don't mind the work really, as long as I learn something. Since most of the work I've been putting in so far hasn't been useful for the learning part it's been kind frustrating. But yeah, I'll try that and see if it helps to get things working.
