I have an old pci s3virge[1] card in my system as a secondary card. If I try to start xorg-server-1.4.99.905 with this card (in a xinerama or stand alone) xorg-server hangs[2] before kdm start and can't go back to a terminal. If I do a crt+alt+sup the system reboot.

I am using gentoo ~x86 (vanilla-kernel 2.6.26, gcc 4.3.1, glibc 2.8_p20080602)
I test it with gentoo-sources 2.6.25 and fail too. With xorg-server-1.4.2 works perfectly (even in a xinerama setup)

Is this still happening?
Were the driver versions the same when you tried 1.4.99.905 and 1.4.2?
Can you please run the server under strace or some other introspection tool to 
see where it's blocking?
