Subject: S3 Server dumps core

I'm using 2.0.5-Snap 6/22, and the S3 still dumps core if and only if I 
do this:

1) Switch from xdm to a text screen.
2) Login as root.  It immediately dumps core after I login as root.
If I login as someone else, it doesn't dump core unless I use su to 
get to root.  After it dumps core, it flips to the graphics screen, and 
the X server starts up again.

The S3 server never seems to dump core when I login as root or use su 
from the graphics creen.



One other problem.... In the login window, Xconsole sometimes appears and 
then closes by itself.  I have seen this happen on a 386-40, and also 
this 486-100.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
