I have two browsers that I normally love: Pale Moon and Basilisk. Unfortunately, both trigger a bug in Xorg, where the server just crashes, and returns me to the login screen. The problem does not affect the XFCE4 desktop environment, but it does affect Cinnamon. I have a first-gen Intel Core i5 mobile processor, and while I'm running Linux Mint 21, I believe the problem affects Ubuntu 22.04.

For more info, please see the bug reports I filed for Mint, from the following URLs:

https://github.com/linuxmint/mint21-beta/issues/148
https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/issues/10972

Please note, I just recently tested a daily build of Ubuntu 23.10 with Gnome, and had the same issue. Debian 12 also has the same problem, although I have not filed a bug report there.

How to reproduce: use either of the previously-mentioned web browsers, and open literally any webpage, except those build in to the browser. (Eg, this very page will crash X, but "about:" pages won't.) X will crash within seconds.

I will attach the output of "inxi -Fxxxrz", as "info.txt"
