Hi Jonas,

If mixxx manages to crash your X server, then it's likely a problem in
the server. If the whole system collapses, then it could well be a
problem in the kernel driver of your video card.

Could you confirm you can not ping your machine anymore? or light the
leds of the keyboard?

As Adam mentions in that thread, you should be able to run mixxx with
the 'simple' display mode.

mixxx could also be improved substantially on the graphic rendering
side, and this bug is important.

it would also be useful to know if other applications using 3d
acceleration are working fine on your machine.

cheers, piem
