Having connected two monitors (unequal sized) side-by-side (to a
NVidia 8800-GT card in a MacPro) there are problems due to RandR, is
there any method to disable this extension on X11-server startup?


In this dual-head configuration 'xrandr -q' reports

  Screen 0: minimum 4480x1578, current 4480x1600, maximum 4480x1600
  default connected 4480x1600+0+0 0mm x 0mm
     4480x1578       1.0
     4480x1600       2.0*

which looks wrong at first sight (listing only ... the whole screen).


In fact all of

    XDisplayWidth() / XDisplayHeight()

    XineramaQueryScreens()

and

    XRRGetCrtcInfo()

return occasionally conflicting panel- and full-screen geometry
data.  Though, it seems the above first two are consistent after a
fresh X-server startup (as long as one doesn't fiddle with 'xrandr',
or try rotating panels by "System Preferences -> Monitors").

Having upgraded to 2.6.0 today besides the attached crash report I
don't have yet any particular diagnostic data, so keeping watching
for now...  :-)
