kdevelop 1.1 crashing X on an Ultra 1

New info.  The problem only occurs when frame buffering is enabled.  This is
on the
Ultra 1 with the Creator 3D vid card.  If I turn off the frame buffering
with the
noFFB option, kdevelop works great.  Of course, moving windows around the
screen is a little slow.

Is there any possibility of getting this fixed?  Is there any other info
that I could give that
would help with this situation?
