           Summary: Xorg packages crash various Linux installations
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P1
         Component: Fonts/other
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: tunetmaton at jippii.fi


I've been trying to install various Linux distributions to two different PCs. 
Unfortunately the installation always crashes while installing packages 
"Xorg-75dpi-fonts" or "Xorg-100dpi-fonts". The problem occurs in all new distros 
with "Xorg" instead of "XFree86", including Slackware 10.0, Mandrake 10.0 and 
VectorLinux 5.0-SOHO-rc1. This makes installation of VectorLinux impossible and 
can render Slackware and Mandrake unusable. I have tried installing with 
different kernels.

I have a computer with "AMD Athlon XP 2700+" processor, 512MB RAM, 120GB Hard 
disk with a 20GB ext2 partition and 1GB Linux SWAP partition, and "ATI RADEON 
9600XT 128MB" graphic card

and another machine with "Pentium II" processor, 256MB RAM, 4GB Hard Disk with 
enough free space and a Swap partition, and "RivaTNT 2" graphic card
