Description of problem: I add the word severe to indicate this bug is nontrivial. I have experienced it in 6.8.2 and the recurrence of it shows that the newest update isn't perfect. X has been doing a good job until this update. Phenomina: Suspend to ram works still. Wakeup works too. But X server acts weirdly after wakeup. Almost all gui apps became "transparent". For example in gnome-terminal, it becomes transparent and it doesn't display any output. But drag the mouse across the region will show the output. I have taken the screenshot of gnome-terminal using "Alt + Print Screen". Look how bizarre this is! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 100% How reproducible: Suspend to ram. Maybe this depends on video driver. I'm using i810. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Created attachment 127780 [details] weid screenshot of gnome-terminal window.
Created attachment 127783 [details] Ubuntu corrupted screen
Created attachment 127784 [details] Ubuntu corrupted screen I have downgraded to previous version of X and the bug still exists. So it's a bug of X11. Ubuntu daper is having exactly the same bug and they are working hard to fix it. https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-driver-i810/+bug/29880
A work around have been discovered: In the file hw/xfree86/common/xf86Bus.c, find the call to "ValidatePci();" and comment it out? it should be around line 2491: Do this.. /* ValidatePci(); */ or #if 0 ValidatePci(); #endif.

Are you still hitting this?
I am not using fedora core 5 now. But the problem is reproducible with current Fedora rawhide kernel and X server.
Fedora Core 5 is no longer supported, please, could you reproduce this bug with the updated version of the currently supported distribution (Fedora Core 6, or Fedora 7, or Rawhide)? If this issue turns out to still be reproducible, please let us know in this bug report. If after a month's time we have not heard back from you, we will have to close this bug as CANTFIX/INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Setting status to NEEDINFO, and awaiting information from the reporter. Thanks in advance.
More than a year has passed and I am not sure if I am reproducing the bug. Maybe we can just close the bug and let it bury in somewhere.
Thanks, and I am really sorry for the state of our bugzilla, that we left this bug so long unnoticed (comment 9 is obviously one of our attempts to get bugzilla into manageable state again). If it will happen again on supported distro, please, don't hesitate to file a new bug.
No problem.
