Description of problem:

After upgrading the kernel to version 2.6.23.15-137.fc8 I am unable to 
successfully start or reconfigure xorg on an fedora 8 x86_64 computer. The 
driver that I'm using is i810 my monitor is a 17 inch Samsung 731B lcd.

What happens is that when I startx X starts but then my monitor starts to 
flicker and thats it.

Before the upgrade everything was working just fine.


On another x86_64, the uprade went smoothly, however, I'm using the commercial 
NVidia driver.

Please!!!!

Did 2.6.23.14-115 work?

If not, what was the last version that did?
Comment 2 Eli Wapniarski 2008-02-13 04:49:53 UTC 
If that was the version just before this one then yes.
Comment 3 Eli Wapniarski 2008-02-14 19:57:40 UTC 
OK... After the latest set of updates things seem to working again. It seems 
that either Mesa or the glibs were responsible for fixing the problem.
