Hi,
I have problem with XFree4.x(current 4.1) when I have large file transfer(~1GB)
then screen in X start blinking(black screen),console works fine!
Restarting Xe not resolving problem! No message in log !
I have K7-700Mhz/AbitKA7(KX133)/256M/G400DH32M
Kernel:2.4.x,current 2.4.6

Running the XFree86 config program from XFree86-xf86cfg-4.0.3-5.i386.rpm
(RedHat 7.1) _causes_ the massive clock skew on my Tyan Tomcat IV (i430HX)
Pentium 233/MMX motherboard w/ S3 Virge. My 2.2.19 kernel prints the
"clock skew detected -- probably a VIA 686a" message and resets the clock.
The NTP daemon afterward can't correct the clock fast enough if the kernel
doesn't fix it. I can tell when it happens because the GPM mouse cursor
moves very jerky. If I don't run that program, no clock skew ever.
XFree86 4.0 is fine otherwise but since I can't screenshot with my BTTV
card, I run 3.3.6.
So maybe not always hardware, sometimes just suid apps stomping on what
they shouldn't.

Nope, not help! In FreeBSD with XFree86-4 I don't have this problem!

I don't have onboard sound & ata100
