RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

It's weird but there are many pieces of information which are not part of the sosreport:

* your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf, if available) -- I guess there is none, right?
* X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) -- yes, even that is missing
* output of the dmesg command, and
* system log (/var/log/messages)

Please attach these logs to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link above.

We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information.

Thanks in advance.

The xorg-x11-drv-nouveau rebase is now sitting in CVS, and should resolve this problem.  It can't be built in brew yet however as it's pending a libdrm update.
Comment 6 Vladimir Benes 2011-03-10 10:47:37 UTC 
hmm, I can again see occasional lock ups no related to screen orientation. We saw those in 6.0 beta also .. going to find the reason and the bug number
