Sorry for letting this bug rotten for so long. I am sorry that we cannot help users of the binary-only drivers like the nvidia one. Could you confirm to us, that you are able to reproduce this problem with the current upgraded Fedora using only open source drivers? For the information how to clean all remains of binary drivers, please, take a look at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Xorg/3rdPartyVideoDrivers In case, you don't want to do it (or you are not able to reproduce with open source drivers, and don't want to switch to them), Nvidia provides indirect customer support via an online web based support forum. Nvidia monitors these web forums for commonly reported problems and passes them on to Nvidia engineers for investigation. Once they've isolated a particular problem, it is often fixed in a future video driver update. The NVNews Nvidia Linux driver forum is located at: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=14 Once you have reported this issue in the Nvidia web forums, others who may have experienced the particular problem may be able to assist. If there is a real bug occuring, Nvidia will be able to determine this, and will likely resolve the issue in a future driver update for the operating system releases that they officially support. While Red Hat does not support the proprietary nvidia driver, users requiring technical support may also find the various X.Org, XFree86, and Red Hat mailing lists helpful in finding assistance: X.Org mailing lists: http://www.freedesktop.org/XOrg/XorgMailingLists XFree86 mailing lists: http://www.xfree86.org/sos/lists.html Red Hat mailing lists: https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo
Switched to F8 64 bit and the problem does not seem to exist.
Thanks for letting us know.
