Dear FreeBSD people,
I've upgraded Xorg a while ago and since then I've been experiencing random Xorg crashes all over.
My system is a amd 64 CPU running FreeBSD 6.2 where uname -a gives:
FreeBSD zouk.tiscali.nl 6.2-RELEASE-p5 FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p5 #14: Sun Jun 3 10:40:42 CEST 2007 root@:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MYKERNEL amd64
The contents of my /etc/make.conf is:

The crash behaves in the following way. I'm using gnome as a windowmanager and I can be busy in firefox (in fact I observed it oly when I was browsing but I guess it could happen during other activities as well) when all of a sudden the windows goes black and am in a console seeing this error message:
Login: Jul 15 12:51:07 zouk gdm[1082]: Error reinitializing server
Then the follwing message is repeated two times:
Jul 15 12:51:08 zouk gdm[10143]: gdm_slave_xio error_handler: Fatal X error- Restarting: 0
Then another error message:
Jul 15 12:51:14 zouk gdm[1074]: Failed to start X server several times in a short time period: disabling display : 0
My Xorg.log file looks like this:
