Yes, it happened once to me. Check out your X server log file (/var/log/Xfree86.0.log or similar) for video driver issues. Try issuing a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 using less color depth (16 bit is OK on my U10) and, if you stille experience further problems, consider using KDM as session manager for X. Bye, Antonello P.s.: On the same topic: does someone know if Radeonfb has a working implementation on SPARC in the 2.6-series kernel? Using the latest 2.4, it gets compiled but (probably because of the VGA BIOS stuff) it's pretty unusable. No luck with Xfree86, too, as I was expecting. I am wondering if there's possible to use the VGA BIOS emulation support used in Bochs (http://bochs.sf.net) to do anything usual with (cheap!) PCI video cards on Linux/SPARC. I *do* need dual head and graphics improvement on the U10, and I can't afford Sun hardware :( -- Antonello <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
