what kernel are you running? care you try latest -92 kernel from koji and see if -ati still causes it. A reboot seems like a really unusual issue, I can supply some test packages to try and narrow down which of the patch in 42 might have caused it. I Tested it with kernel 5-92 and it was not until I downgraded the ati driver to -41 it stopped... I tested it also against kernels 4-79 and 4-68 as well before starting to down grade the ati driver. "I can supply some test packages to try and narrow down which of the patch in 42 might have caused it" Will these test packages appear in koji or via url you will provide? Just tested with kernel -101 and drv-ati -44 and the system froze Reverting the ati driver back to -41 resulted not in a system freeze.. Just tested with kernel -104 and drv-ati -44 and the system froze as soon as gdm starts. Reverting the ati driver back to -41 resulted not in a system freeze.. Any news from those test packages so we can narrow what causes this that got introduced in -42 Note the behaviour has change from instant reboot to system freeze with the latest kernels. Yeah I found the change that caused it however I haven't found the correct fix. I removed a workaround from -41 that broke things, I don't want to put it back in as it shouldn't be needed. I hopefully have the real fix in hand tomorrow. With kernel -109 and drv-ati -46 we are back to instant reboot as soon as gdm starts... With kernel -116 and ati -51 the system does not reboot itself however experiencing graphical glitches ( background in GDM scrambled but eventually loads and if I log in and have a terminal window open and firefox and then switch between them the system freezes ) System also feels significantly more responsive. Should this be closed as FIXED since it has stop instantly rebooting itself as soon as it enters GDM and moved to the parent bug of the ATI cards? Seeing in Xorg log lots of RADEON DRM CS failure - corruptions/glitches may occur -12 bufmgr: last submission... This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle. Changing version to '10'.
