If opening the mouse fails (e.g. due to an unknown protocol selection) the server segfaults during shutdown and leaves the console in an unusable state. To reproduce use something like 'Option "Protocol" "blafoo"' in the mouse InputDevice section. I'll add a 1-linear patch that fixes this.
Created attachment 927 [details] [review] Patch against shutdown segfault w/ keyboard not initialized The server segfaulted during shutdown as the keyboard procedure was not yet initialized.
Fixed in CVS for a long time now.
