Re: Fedora 10 X Problem

I have the same problem: I think it may have something to do with this kernel modesetting for ATI Radeons: I do have a ATI Technologies Radeon R300 NG (FireGL X1). I am trying now with nomodeset as advised on the Fedora release notes. Funny thing is that I do not even have compviz (the RPM) installed.

Let us see if this helps!

Guys, I really need some advice on X hang.

I have debugged that Xorg is on process state "D"
when this happens. I am running 2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64 #1
SMP. Is there any fix for this ? please help.

I installed (not upgraded, previously it had FC 6
& no
problems) FC 10 on my machine few days ago. I am
running
into couple of issues. First one is, after few hours
of
work, X start to take long time to update (20-30
seconds or
in some case minutes and some time for ever). This
happens
when I move from one desktop to another or move or
resize
terminal. I have been rebooting computer / restarting
X to
atleast be able to continue to work. This is very
annoying
as I have several terminals and other stuff open
during the
course of day.

My machine:

AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies
Inc
RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300 (PCIE)]
Acer 24 inch monitor (AL2416W)

Please let me know if you need more details and how to
fix
this issue.

Also, as I am typing this message the cursor has
changed
its shape, after recent update (Dec 3rd).
