    Hi folks,

    yesterday I replaced my old 64MB SDRAM module w/o parity with a 128MV
    SDRAM with parity on my ASUS P2B.
    Now I'm having problems with X terminating about every 20 minutes
    when working with larger programs like gimp, netscape or mozilla.
    There's no slowing down or any other strange behaviour but X is suddenly
    terminated. (2.2.16 with xf-3.3.5)

    Any hints?
