Hi Tim!
    X11 appears to crash a lot with SIGSEGV when something library or
application along the way breaks; I've run into this issue multiple
times lately trying to setup my PoC thin client from scratch over the
past couple of days.
    Is this recently happening after an application upgrade, or is
this a new [pristine?] machine?
Thanks!
