Log with crash.

Starting googleearth 5.2.1.1588 always crashes the X server. This started to happen when I upgraded from X.org 1.7.7 to 1.9.3 (slackware). It did not happen in 1.7.7. However, it also happened in older versions like 1.4. This is a regression.

I am using kernel 2.6.36.3, ati-driver 6.14.0, mesa 7.10 on Radeon HD 4350 (RV710).

The X.org.log with the crash is attached.

Looks like this could be a duplicate of bug 32462.
Comment 2 aceman 2011-02-09 11:00:13 UTC
I am not sure. I do not have reference to doListFontsWithInfo in my backtrace. And I am using 32bit system not 64bit. However, if bug 31501 is related, I also use the font server (xfs).
Comment 3 aceman 2011-02-19 08:25:00 UTC
This does happen even when Option "NoAccel" "true" is set in xorg.conf.
Comment 4 aceman 2011-04-13 11:31:53 UTC
After removing xfs from the FontPath, the X server no longer crashes and googleearth work fine.

This is similar to bug 36060. What can be done to fix the underlying problem?

Marking as dupe for now.
