Hi,

Thanks for your help.

I think it is not the cause :-)

00b0dc74 <trampoline>:
trampoline():
  b0dc74:       e8 37 00 00 00          call   b0dcb0 <int80_warning>
  b0dc79:       8d 64 24 04             lea    0x4(%esp),%esp
  b0dc7d:       cf                      iret
  b0dc7e:       90                      nop
  b0dc7f:       90                      nop

But as I have noted, I think the original position of the error is in
function sw_fill in pslim.c:
...
 if (vc->do_drty)
    vc->do_drty(x, y, w, h);
...

"vc->do_drty" equals 0x00b0d73c here which seems to be invalid. And I guess
"new->do_drty" should be initialized to "fg_do_drty" (NULL) in function
do_switch in main.c.
