I am using PCLinuxOS 2007 (RPM based; kernel 2.6.18.6), Xorg 7.2.0-1 and KDE 3.5.6 with FF3b5 (mozilla.org version). Having 256 MB RAM. Examples are: * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Allmessages * http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&limit=5000 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Just visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Allmessages or http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&limit=5000 (for example). Actual Results: The page is loading, and suddenly the screen gets pitch black! KDE is restarting then. I do not know whether Xorg or KDE is crashing. But I think it is Xorg! Expected Results: Load the site without crashing operating software. You should try http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&limit=5000 to test this, as you can vary the limit with this link!
