Description of problem: When starting gdm in run level 5, I get just blank screen with mouse cursor. When trying second start of X (for example, switching to run level 3, and running startx) the screen is totally black and even monitor is being switched off. For the first failure to run I blame gdm, because when gdm has been upgraded, everything seems to work now. But I fear the need to restart X. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.7.195-5.fc9.x86_64 gdm-2.21.2-0.2007.11.20.2.fc9.x86_64 (the new one which works) How reproducible: 3 out of 3 attempts Steps to Reproduce: 1.run X 2.because of whatever, stop them 3.run X once more Actual results: monitor switched off Expected results: new shiny instance of X Additional info:
Created attachment 266651 [details] running /var/log/Xorg.0.log (I haven't touched /etc/X11/xorg.conf between different attempts so it should be no problem, IMHO)
is this still happening with latest rawhide kernel/X.org/drivers/gdm? I've fixed a few bugs in this area.
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This has been fixed a long time ago.
