hmm, just make sure the aliases are correct for the right driver for the
card... that might lock up a box nice and tight... and just make sure it
was using the same driver that it was using before.... also I've noticed
some wierdness with some smp systems and certain drivers locking up
(cough, aic7xxx.o, cough)

yea, gimp is trying to use the exceed fonts and just not doing as it
should... the last time I tried to make my linux box a font server to a
windows box running ReflectionX was in RH 6.0, and I managed to kill the
xfs process.... hmm, just never been good to me...
