It looks like it could be a problem with EXA acceleration. I would try
disabling it.
You would place the following line in the Device section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Option "NoAccel" "true"

On my system, I disabled accel as suggested, and it no longer crashes.
Ideally, though, EXA acceleration would work... Upstream does not appear

Timo, is it the best solution to just remove the package? It definitely
