It happens every time I log out, the display manager notices that the X server did not exit cleanly and does not restart it. I then have to restart the display manager(KDM in this case) to get X back. I do not see it happening if I start X using startx instead, I don't know what the difference is though. > whether the bug is actually in the server or in the driver.

However the machine I see the problem on was upgraded from sarge -> Etch where as my parallels install was done from the last netinst ISO. This is why I concluded it had something to do with the driver, or at least if it is a bug in the server it's being provoked by something to do with the environment or the card in that machine. I suppose it could even be something broken due to the Sarge -> Etch upgrade. > Could you try upgrading your server to experimental (2:1.2.99.901-1)?

I can try but since the machine is used remotely by other people (who I have to make sure aren't logged on every time I restart kdm) it will take a few days before I have an opportunity to do so. I can't simply fiddle with it to characterise the problem further. Unless someone can tell what what runes I can use to convice kdm to start the xserver without restarting kdm and thus killing all the remote sessions. -p -- Paul Gotch -------------------------------------------------------------------- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
