[Bug 112999] Re: crashing with SIGFPE in QApplicationPrivate::construct() when display size is 0

Seems like this bug happens when the display size is set to 0. This could happen, in particular, when using ATI proprietary drivers (fglrx).
A workaround is to specify "DisplaySize" inside the "Monitor" section of xorg.conf.
See http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=36399 for an example (thanks to Ken Phillis Jr for the reference!).

However I think that Qt libraries should check the value returned by the
X server before making computations, in order to avoid the crash of the
application.
