Please provide backtraces from Xorg.0.log

Well, I can't provide the Xorg.0.log with xf86-video-sisimedia
because now I switched to this SiS 671 AUR driver (works
flawlessly with fullscreen video, no X crashes) -
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34256. Here is my current Xorg.0.log anyway:
http://paste.pocoo.org/show/497293/. Maybe the xf86-video-sisimedia and the AUR driver should be
merged?

If you can't provide information, then I can't fix it, as I don't
have the hardware for it.

OK, I installed xf86-video-sisimedia again. Here is a Xorg.0.log
after X crashed:

I think applying sis_video_c.patch from the AUR package to
xf86-video-sisimedia will solve your bug.

As I am a complete newbie and not even sure how to apply the patch
to xf86-video-sisimedia, I will just use the AUR driver. Thanks
for the help anyway.
