I have the same problem too... But maybe it is because i have an 5 years old machine. This is my system configuration: - AMD-K6 II 450MHz. - 128 MB intern memory - Ali Motherboard
Same problem on IBM T23, hardware (from hwconf): driver: Card:S3 Savage/IX desc: "S3 Inc. SuperSavage IX/C SDR" vendorId: 5333 deviceId: 8c2e subVendorId: 1014 subDeviceId: 01fc I can't tell what the CPU usage is, though, as I can't switch to a text console after X hangs. All I can do is reboot.
Why are you putting these unsupported options in the config file? ChipId 0x4c4d ChipRev 0x64 Don't override ChipId and ChipRev. Does this problem still occur with Fedora Core 3 with all updates applied, after running "system-config-display --reconfig"?
juppie, G Vincent: Both of your bugs sound completely unrelated to the problem reported in the initial bug report. You all have different video hardware. If you still have these problems in Fedora Core 3, with all updates applied, please file bug reports for your Savage issue in X.Org bugzilla at http://bugs.freedesktop.org Thanks
Fedora Core 2 support lifetime has now ended. Upgrade to Fedora Core 3 if the problem still happens and you think it's a bug, you can report it in X.Org bugzilla at http://bugs.freedesktop.org in the "xorg" component.
