Description Rick Richardson 2004-10-16 14:15:29 UTC 
On a Compaq R3000Z widescreen laptop (1280x800), with an Nvidia
geforce chip, when you switch from X to a text mode virtual console,
the display loses sync.  This also happens when X exits for good as
you try to shut down the system.

Not sure if this is a kernel issue or not.
Comment 1 Dave Jones 2005-07-15 17:43:38 UTC 
An update has been released for Fedora Core 3 (kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3) which
may contain a fix for your problem.   Please update to this new kernel, and
report whether or not it fixes your problem.

If you have updated to Fedora Core 4 since this bug was opened, and the problem
still occurs with the latest updates for that release, please change the version
field of this bug to 'fc4'.

Thank you.
