RedHat 6/GNOME/Enlightenment unstable?

Hi,

I'm running RedHat 6, with GNOME and Enlightenment as my desktop/window
managers, on my computer (PII, 64MB RAM, Daimond Viper 550. is that all
the relevant information needed?) and I occasionally find that X windows
just crashes for no reason at all. I have Linux run in init level 5, so X
starts again, but it's rather annoying.

It just happened to me not even 5 minutes ago, and all I had running was
x11amp, and it was loading netscape. It dumped core, if that makes any
difference. When I came back, I ran top and saw that 33MB of the ram was
used for cache, so I don't think it could be a memory problem.

Has anyone else had similar problems and fixed it? does anyone know how I
could try to identify what is causing the problem (apart from trying
different desktop/window managers, if possible)?

thanks,
Andy
