I have a fully reproducible crash of X11 : The bug seems to be in the mga driver :
- Take a PC with a matrox g450
- configure the X server in 16 bits, 1280x1024
(I have joined my XF86Config-4 in logfiles.tar.gz)
- open the file LdMBUG2.doc with OpenOffice
--> X crashes
---------------
I have done several tests :
1) I have reproduced it with:
mandrake 9.0rc2 and 8.2; with StarOffice6.0 and OpenOffice1.0.1
2) did also occur once in 24bits
3) seems to occur only on matrox cards
4) I could not reproduce it on Redhat7.3 (on another PC with g450)
5) does not occur with Kword
6) I could reproduce it only with the joined document (LdMBUG2.doc)
7) does not occur with the same document saved in openoffice format
---------------
In my opinion, this is the combination of
a) a bug in mga_drv.o
b) a bad font
---------------
Please tell if someone can reproduce it.

I have joined, in files.tar.gz :
The file that causes the crash (LdMBUG2.doc)
The config of XFree86 (XF86Config-4)
The log file of XFree86 (XFree86.0.log)
The result of "lspci -v" (lspci)
