Same problem on Acer Aspire 5737Z laptop.

I've used this Live CD: http://adamwill.fedorapeople.org/20090909_test_day_images/testday-20090909-x86_64.iso

Comment 3 Adam Williamson 2009-09-17 20:21:02 UTC
jurijs has the same hardware as comment #1. it's possible the original report and comment #1 are different bugs, though. ben, please ask if you'd prefer the report to be split.

Comment 4 Ben Skeggs 2009-09-17 21:08:04 UTC
They're all likely the same cause I'd say, later kernels will refuse acceleration on them (slightly better than F11 where nouveau refused to run at all), and X will start in NoAccel mode until it's fixed.
