Comment 1 Matěj Cepl 2009-11-05 18:35:33 UTC
Since this bugzilla report was filed, there have been several major updates in various components of the Xorg system, which may have resolved this issue. Users who have experienced this problem are encouraged to upgrade their system to the latest version of their packages. For packages from updates-testing repository you can use command

yum upgrade --enablerepo='*-updates-testing'

Alternatively, you can also try to test whether this bug is reproducible with the upcoming Fedora 12 distribution by downloading LiveMedia of F12 Beta available at http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/ . By using that you get all the latest packages without need to install anything on your computer. For more information on using LiveMedia take a look at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraLiveCD .

Please, if you experience this problem on the up-to-date system, let us now in the comment for this bug, or whether the upgraded system works for you.

If you won't be able to reply in one month, I will have to close this bug as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Thank you.

Comment 2 Clodoaldo Pinto Neto 2009-11-05 19:09:54 UTC
The bug persists in F11_64 updated without the updates-testing repository as I can't assume the risk.

The bug does not happen in F12_64.

Thank you for letting us know.

Comment 4 Clodoaldo Pinto Neto 2009-11-08 09:43:36 UTC
By closing this you mean F11 is not supported any more?
