AMD K6-III 450 running a 2.4.19 kernel with vesafb, XFree86 4.1.0, and a USB mouse works fine. Same setup with a 2.5.54 kernel does a cold reboot when I type "startx".

Yup. It must be something else then. Perhaps you should try disabling various DRM/AGP type things in config, see if that helps.

2.5.55 appears to work fine with CONFIG_AGP and CONFIG_DRM undefined. I'll retry with CONFIG_AGP_MODULE next...

CONFIG_AGP_MODULE enabled works fine with CONFIG_AGP_VIA_MODULE. I'll try turning everything back on (AGP 3.0 compliance, DRM) and see what happens.
