A simple startx with three xterms doesn't even render the fonts correctly. Eventually the machine wedges and can't be pinged. Switching the xorg.conf driver from radeon to vesa works and creates a reasonable environment. This seems to have manifested itself since 2.6.15-rc1. The laptop is a Compaq NX9600 with maximum memory and a large disk. Should anyone care for further data captured from /proc, config, logs and etc., I'll be glad to forward them along. I'd also be willing to debug and/or test whatever suggestions might be made. thanks, bob ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
