+1 for this exact graphics config. In my case, I disabled Compiz/Desktop Effects and was back in the desktop - I don't know if Ian is also using 3D/Compiz etc. I'm receiving the same error. I've got a Thinkpad T61, running x86-64 w/ i965 graphics. I found that if I kept trying to login it would eventually "catch", but then I would have a slew of "gnome panels" running, most of them pegging a CPU. Killing all but the highest PID seemed to bring things back closer to normal. Per Sam's comment, disabling Compiz/Desktop Effects seems to give me normal desktop operation again. After doing that, I was able to login on the first shot. Here is the segfault line from my attempts to login prior to Sam's workaround: Sep 11 18:24:46 Q kernel: Xorg[2244]: segfault at 0 ip 00000000004e8e0b sp 00007fff153e1b98 error 4 in Xorg[400000+1b6000] Also, if it helps, when I disabled Desktop Effects it appears that Compiz took a dive. Here is that segault line as as well: Sep 12 00:54:19 Q kernel: compiz[6436]: segfault at 38a8e2ea80 ip 00000038a8e2ea80 sp 00007fff96aa0818 error 14 in libICE.so.6.3.0[38ab200000+17000] (In reply to comment #2) > I'm receiving the same error.

Created attachment 360725 [details] xorg.log from failed login attempt Description of problem: After a recent yum update I can't login to the desktop. On entering login details, the login dialog disappears, a busy cursor plays for a while then X appears to restart and takes me back to the login screen. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.30.5-43.fc11.x86_64 xorg-x11-drivers-7.3-11.fc11.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-common-1.6.3-4.fc11.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.6.3-4.fc11.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.7.0-7.fc11.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Attempt to login with valid details 2. 3. Actual results: Get booted back to login screen. Expected results: Get to desktop Additional info: Disabling selinux didn't help. Restarting with the previous kernel (2.6.29.6-217.2.16.fc11.x86_64) works. The following extract from /var/log/messages may correspond to the failed login: Sep 11 21:16:56 prometheus gnome-keyring-daemon[2132]: Couldn't unlock login keyring with provided password Sep 11 21:16:56 prometheus gnome-keyring-daemon[2132]: Failed to unlock login on startup Sep 11 21:17:00 prometheus kernel: [drm:edid_is_valid] *ERROR* Raw EDID: Sep 11 21:17:00 prometheus kernel: Sep 11 21:17:00 prometheus kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: LVDS-1: EDID invalid.
