Title: XGraphics Failure with DrakeConf

Bonjour,

I'm enjoying testing several features on 7.2. After testing CUPS without problems. I am now trying the graphics control Icon in DrakeConf.

Started the Xgraphic in DrakeConf, displayed menu of resolution OK, I pressed the  "cancel" button to get the next menu where monitor, graphics card configuration etc is displayed, I changed the graphics card to Other, Voodoo banshee followed by monitor Magvision XJ700T, resolution to 1024X768 and tested the result.

Result: The penguin test bitmap is displayed OK as well as the countdown box, but after the 8 seconds mark or accepting the setting, the bitmap remains on screen, some icons on KDE will return to the desktop and is then followed by a total freeze up where a system reset is required.

A fresh reload of 7.1 did not mirror this behaviour, another fresh reload of 7.2 and further testing did return the problem as indicated above. X 3.3.6 standard (no 3d) version was in use on 7.2, 3.3.5 on 7.1

Sand Box is a K6-300, 65 Meg, 3DFX Voodoo Banshee. Let me know if this is sufficient information to assist.
