Well, somewhere deep in the BIOS peripheral settings, there are |
| 8 |
things like "Enable AGP Fast Write" or similar. Set all those |
| 9 |
things to Off or Disabled. You wil want stability first, speed |
| 10 |
maybe later. It probably won't make a difference, but it at least |
| 11 |
excludes one possible source of problems. |

You've said you have an MSI K8M800 motherboard. Looking at |
| 17 |
http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_list.asp?class=mb&cpu=3, such |
| 18 |
boards only support "Sempron 2600+, 2800+, 3000+, 3100+, 3300+", |
| 19 |
not a 2500+. This may not be a problem, but then again, it might |
| 20 |
not be listed for a reason. |

No "sse" USE flag? You could try adding it and re-emerging Xorg. |

To confirm your exact CPU, 'cat /proc/cpuinfo'. |
| 29 |
An 'lsmod' on this system under Gentoo. |
| 30 |
An 'emerge -pv xorg-x11'. |
| 31 |
A 'cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf'. |
| 32 |
And 'grep "^(--\|^(WW\|^(EE" /var/log/Xorg.0.log'. |
