Description of problem:
X using Xinerama (AGP NVidia GeForce2 MX 200 as primary using nv driver, PCI
Voodoo3 2000 using tdfx driver) hangs on logout from gnome.  After logout, X
restarts to gray screen with X mouse cursor; no login screen.  The mouse pointer
moves when the mouse is moved, but the keyboard is locked so I can't get to a
terminal, can't do emergency shutdown (Ctrl-Alt-Del), can't restart X
(Ctrl-Alt-BackSp), and I have to use the reset button to get linux back up. 
Keyboard is set up to use US standard 105 key, mouse is USB logitech, X version
is whatever came prebuilt with RedHat 8.  I assume that this is a gdm problem,
but I don't know how to test it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RedHat 8.0 on computer with graphics cards mentioned above.  Note
that automatic X configuration will fail and you will have to tinker with the
XF86Config file yourself.
2. telinit 3 to get to non-X mode.
3. Tinker with the XF86Config file, putting the AGP card as the left screen and
the PCI as right.
4. telinit 5 to restart X mode.  gdm starts fine, login screen is on one screen
instead of on the line between the two monitors (very nice).  Login to gnome.
5. Play around in gnome for a bit setting configuration to how you like it.
6. Logout.  X will hang as described above.
	

Actual Results:  X hangs, have to reboot the computer to get linux back.  It's
possible that you can telnet (or ssh) into the computer and kill X, but I don't
have another computer with which to test that.

Expected Results:  The login screen should come back up, and the keyboard should
still be enabled.

Attach X config, and log file using link below please.

Comment 2 Mike A. Harris 2002-12-19 04:10:12 UTC

Closing bug due to inactivity and lack of information.

Happens for me also in RH9 and FC1 with all relevant updates.

Additionally, if Gnome is exited via CTRL+ALT+BKSPC everything is
fine; the X server will reinitialise itself correctly with the login
screen.  I am happy to perform any testing required.
