I can confirm that *without* xserver-xorg-video-ati installed: 1. If I comment out the virtual directive, there is no crash. 2. If I remove xorg.conf completely, there is no crash. There is still a bunch of diagnostics in the log file: [255110.061] (==) Depth 24 pixmap format is 32 bpp [255110.264] (==) FBDEV(0): Backing store disabled [255110.264] (EE) FBDEV(0): FBIOPUTCMAP: Invalid argument [255110.264] (EE) FBDEV(0): FBIOPUTCMAP: Invalid argument [255110.264] (EE) FBDEV(0): FBIOPUTCMAP: Invalid argument [ ... ] Once I install xserver-xorg-video-ati, I can remove xorg.conf and it runs using the RADEON driver. Thanks again for the help. Cheers, -Steve
