hi,

i guess it is this [1] page in the wiki. it's about XFree86, but
obtaining a backtrace of X.Org should work the very same way.

i'm with cyril, as even the buggiest x-application should never ever be
able to crash the whole x-server!

just for fun: did you try to run openarena in a window instead of the
default fullscreen mode? i have some minor issues on my notebook,
running opengl applications in fullscreen mode... so maybe it's worth
to give it a try: "openarena +set r_fullscreen 0"

crashing x-servers can also result from "manually" (i mean
these nasty installation-scripts from the hardware manufacturers'
packages) installed graphics card drivers from ATI and NVIDIA!

cheers - fuddl
