Created attachment 361983 [details] Screen output when I try to start X manually (as root) Description of problem: When I am trying to log in to my desktop, X crashes while loading Gnome and loads login screen again. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rpm -qa | grep xorg-x11-drv-intel xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.7.0-7.fc11.i586 How reproducible: 95% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start computer 2. Wait until login screen 3. Login in Actual results: After 1-2 seconds X crashes and returns to the login screen (gdm) Expected results: Being able to log-in. Additional info: I was using happily suspend/resume functionality, but unfortunately it got broken - in 10-20% cases after resume I could only see fedora logo and that's all (I've filled bug regarding this issue and my friend, who's using a laptop with intel graphics card confirmed this issue on his machine too). I've tried earlier kernel, same result, I've also tried to use “nomodeset” - same result. Changing AccelMethod to “EXA” - same result, changing to “XAA” - no screen, though computer works, when I press “power-off” button, it switches off.

I've just tried Fedora 12 Spin 1 Live - worked fine, logged in without any problems, though panels/windows where flashing after I've enabled compiz...
Testing Fedora 12 Spin 3 XFCE Live - worked fine till log in screen, then got a message “Unable to load a failsafe session” with explanation: Unable to determine failsafe session name. Possible causes: xfconfd isn't running (D-Bus setup problem); environment variable $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS is set incorrectly (must include "/etc"), or xfce4-session is installed incorrectly. and when I press “quit”, I get the login screen again :)
Nice catch, thanks!
