So far, so good - X is not on, all virtual consoles work as expected.

(The last row is "Killed" in Finnish). At this point the screen goes black and computer is unresponsive to keyboard, but remains responsive through ssh. Won't respond to a "shutdown -h now", though - locks up instead and goes offline.

dmesg seems to give loads of probably interesting stuff, from this onward:

[  466.974574] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000124

Unfortunately I can't debug this myself. If you need me to run more tests, just say so. I'd really like to have a working gnome-shell on my secondary laptop as well. dmesg output attached, will attach lspci -v.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug.  I was reviewing this report and noticed that updates to this package have been released since it was first reported. If you have time to update the package and re-test, please do so and report the results here. You can obtain the updated package by typing 'yum update xorg-x11-drv-ati' or using the graphical updater, Software Update.

Comment 7 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 16:30:10 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
