Okay, I've updated a bunch of ports and am still seeing the

This looks identical to the problem I reported as ports/131930.
Whilst my patch wasn't applied, ISTR a similar patch got applied
upstream to fix the issue.

I've run through portsnap/portupgrade a few times, so my
server should be up-to-date and I still see the crash.
I suspect the upstream patch you're referring to would
be the memset(WindowTable, 0, sizeof()) that appears a
few lines after the call that triggers the crash.

Other than that, I can confirm that you _can_ run X on an AA1,
at least on 8.x (that's what I'm currently using).

What window manager are you using?  Right now, I'm
using TWM but suspect there's something a bit better
suited to this small screen.  (Ideally, something that
adapts well to either the built-in screen or the
external 20" monitor I often use.)

Are you using hal/dbus?

Yes.

I implemented the fix I suggested earlier (scanning
the WindowTable to remove Window objects as they're
deleted) and it does consistently resolve the crash,
but now the X server restarts itself when xinit asks
it to exit, so there's clearly still something amiss.

Patch attached for anyone interested.

Tim
