[vox-tech] Xorg help new Ubuntu

[Alex Mandel]

Just looking for some more ideas...

After upgrading to Ubuntu 8.10 a bunch of applications stopped working
for me. Mostly qt based but the problem isn't that simple, I recompiled
qt myself and the demo app runs fine, then recompiled one of my not
working apps against this working qt and still no go.

Apps that have ceased to work:
Qgis from ppa.launchpad.net/qgis
eric4 from multiverse
qt designer

the only clue I have right now is that it's not a problem with all
machines just some, and it's possibly related to X due to the following
backtrace.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Alex
