We will certainly need to know more about what's going on in your system. Please add drm.debug=0x04 to the kernel command line, restart computer, reproduce the problem, and attach * your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf, if available), * X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) * output of the dmesg command (after the issue happens and before reboot), and * system log (/var/log/messages) 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.
have been running the released version of F15 for some time now and have yet to come across this bug. assuming it was fixed since RC1. closing.
