Xorg appears to lock at the start of gdm or running startx from the command line I appears the server is started for some period of time as gdm or gnome begins its startup, however after about say 10-15 seconds I get messages on the command line that some component cannot talk to the X server. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-server-common-1.5.3-6 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.5.3-6 xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.9.0-62 How reproducible: Locks every time i boot in runlevel 5 or run startx Steps to Reproduce: System was in a known good working state from fresh install from DVD ISO onto a Titanium PowerBook G4 550MHZ with 1GB of RAM. I "Updated" the system via the gnome update panel Actual results: Hard lock of X server. Loss of keyboard and mouse (cannot jump back to any console once the X server locks). I tried both the "ati" driver and the "radeon" driver. The ati driver complained that it went into an infinite loop while the radeon driver failed silently. Additional info: Please let me know what I can provide
