I have similar issue so I want to join here. Random, once a day or more I have blank screen (somtimes cursor is visible but freezed). System looks like working but without video. I need to make reboot after this.

This happens when I switch windows for example. I have tried turning off compiz, gnome animations, removing mesa-experimental - nothing works.

I have hybrid ATI Radeon 3430 (laptop HP 6830s) and FC12. This is new problem, from something like one month or something like this. I have no problem on FC11, Ubuntu, and first updates on FC12.

@Mariuz you don't have the same bug, you are experiencing GPU lockup like:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=554424
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=553279
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=541387

@Purnomo do you still have this issue ? Did you updated to the lastest bits ? If you can't test anymore please just say so.

Comment 11 Matěj Cepl 2010-05-11 17:52:38 UTC
Reporter, could you please reply to the previous question? If you won't reply in one month, I will have to close this bug as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Thank you.

Comment 12 Bug Zapper 2010-11-04 01:29:09 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 12.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '12'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Comment 13 Bug Zapper 2010-12-04 00:40:22 UTC
Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
