Description of problem: logout from gnome makes system freeze Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11 6.7.0-2, gdm 1:2.6.0.0-3 How reproducible: logout from Gnome window manager (reboot, shutdown are OK) Steps to Reproduce: 1. logout from Gnome window manager 2. 3. Actual results: screen goes black, as expected, but then X11 does not restart and in fact system is completely dead. Have to hit the reset button. Expected results: X11 restarts and gdm login window reappears. Additional info: I have an up-to-date clean install of FC2. Previously, FC1, RH9 and RH8 have worked on the same hardware without any problem like this. The (automatically generated) X11 settings appear to be the same with FC2 as with FC1. The monitor is a Fujitsu TE786, the video card an ATI Rage 128; the driver is "r128".
Look at the bug 123424 Andrew.
thanks! I commented out Load "dri" from /etc/X11/xorg.conf and (after a reboot) it now seems to work... So it can be considered the same bug.
A similar situation occurs with Matrox cards look at bug reports 122351 and 125762.
