Xorg.0.log

Description of problem:
After the X61 undocks, the screen is left corrupt (vertial stripes, random colours).   This worked in F10, FWIW.

dmesg says, on undocking:

ACPI: \_SB_.GDCK - undocking
usb 1-4: USB disconnect, address 4
usb 1-4.1: USB disconnect, address 5
e1000e: eth0 NIC Link is Down
[drm] LVDS-8: set mode  d

I can switch to another VT fine, whereby the console says:

[drm] LVDS-8: set mode 1024x768 13

(as it did on boot)

switching back and forth to the X vt gives an apparently random mode:

[drm] LVDS-8: set mode 1024x768 13        <-- console vt
[drm] LVDS-8: set mode  e                 <-- X VT
[drm] LVDS-8: set mode 1024x768 13        <-- console vt
[drm] LVDS-8: set mode  15                <-- X VT
[drm] LVDS-8: set mode 1024x768 13        <-- console vt

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.7.0-7.fc11.x86_64
kernel-2.6.30.5-43.fc11.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot laptop
2. undock
  
Actual results:
screen corrupt

Expected results:
not fail

To be clear: the console VTs work and appear fine.  the X VTs continue to show the corrupt image on switching back, after the undock.  I can SIGTERM X and restart it, at which point it also works fine.

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.
