Do you know why the stack trace is not present in the X server log? I 
was able to get a stack trace as root and with GDB. Issue #102222 
(dix/dispatch.c:4049: AttachOffloadGPU: Assertion `new->current_master 
== pScreen' failed.) tracks this problem now, and the stack traces are 
attached there.


Kind regards,

Paul
