Description of problem: The updates on 12/19 included updates to the Xorg server to 1.5.3-6.fc10.i386 and the Xorg ATI driver to 6.9.0-62.fc10.i386. After installation of these updates the system hangs tight (reset required) at the point where the login dialog should occur during a system boot. Prior to the update it was running on kernel 2.6.27.7-134.fc10.i686. After the update, this kernel produces the hangs. If I boot using the previous kernel 2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686 the boot completes normally, I get a gnome session and the system works normally. This is a SuperMicro X5DA8 with 2 Xeon 3.06 GHz CPUs and a Radeon 9600 (R300) and a Viewsonic PT813 monitor. Since upgrading to F10 (from F9), I've had to run with nomodeset on the kernel coomand line. I have reported that as bug #476254. I have attached 2 Xorg.0.log files. One from the hang and one from normal operation. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.5.3-6.fc10.i386 How reproducible: Always with the 2.6.27 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot kernel 2.6.27.7-134 with updates from 12/19 2. 3. Actual results: System hangs hard (reset required) with the cursor in the middle of the screen when the login dialog should appear. Expected results: Normal login dialog and operation. Additional info:
Created attachment 327595 [details] Xorg.0.log from hung system
Created attachment 327596 [details] Xorg.0.log from normal operation with kernel 2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686
The updates of Friday, 12/26/2008 which included kernel-2.6.27.9-159.fc10.i686 and ati driver xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.9.0-63.fc10.i386 have resolved this issue. However the problem reported in bug #476254 remains.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
