At least with r128 PCI, I have seen lockups happen after a period of days. When that happens, I see a sort of greenish bar of corrupted framebuffer at the top of the screen. Usually killing the server with Ctl-Alt-Backspace works and I can restart X without a problem. I've also seen that with same behavior with AGP Radeon 7500 from time to time. -- Leif Delgass http://www.retinalburn.net ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
