We were running X11R4-PL11 on Sun SparcStation-1's running 4.0.3 with no
problems at all.  Recently, we switched to 4.1 and remade X11R4 to PL18.
Now we are having intermittent crashes (system reboots with a bad trap
error message) when people start up X11.  I.e., sometimes it comes up
and runs perfectly, other times the machine reboots.  For the same person
on the same machine, I have seen both cases occur.  Does anyone have a
clue as to what might be going wrong here?

Thanks in advance,
Ed Friedman
