From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.6 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020916 Description of problem: X using Xinerama (AGP NVidia GeForce2 MX 200 as primary using nv driver, PCI Voodoo3 2000 using tdfx driver) hangs on logout from gnome. After logout, X restarts to gray screen with X mouse cursor; no login screen. The mouse pointer moves when the mouse is moved, but the keyboard is locked so I can't get to a terminal, can't do emergency shutdown (Ctrl-Alt-Del), can't restart X (Ctrl-Alt-BackSp), and I have to use the reset button to get linux back up. Keyboard is set up to use US standard 105 key, mouse is USB logitech, X version is whatever came prebuilt with RedHat 8. I assume that this is a gdm problem, but I don't know how to test it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install RedHat 8.0 on computer with graphics cards mentioned above. Note that automatic X configuration will fail and you will have to tinker with the XF86Config file yourself. 2. telinit 3 to get to non-X mode. 3. Tinker with the XF86Config file, putting the AGP card as the left screen and the PCI as right. 4. telinit 5 to restart X mode. gdm starts fine, login screen is on one screen instead of on the line between the two monitors (very nice). Login to gnome. 5. Play around in gnome for a bit setting configuration to how you like it. 6. Logout. X will hang as described above. Actual Results: X hangs, have to reboot the computer to get linux back. It's possible that you can telnet (or ssh) into the computer and kill X, but I don't have another computer with which to test that. Expected Results: The login screen should come back up, and the keyboard should still be enabled. Additional info:
Attach X config, and log file using link below please.
Closing bug due to inactivity and lack of information.
Happens for me also in RH9 and FC1 with all relevant updates.

I am happy to perform any testing required. dixond AT pythonhacker.is-a-geek.net
