I have the feeling that this is a kernel (or more precise: sound driver/preemtion) related bug and not xfree. But that is just a guess since it is hard to get some infos from a hard locked up machine. > > Another user has a similar problem: his dvi port turns off when he > runs an opengl app. closing the app brings the display back as I > recall.

With the older 4.3 i had such problems, thats why i switched to cvs. The most display problems seem to come from dvi-d out of the gigabyte cards. My monitor is running 1600x1200 on dvi-d and there are a lot of pixel errors in the image and the monitor looses sync now and then. Thats why i switched to a pci card (Club3d 9200) wich has a real crappy analog output put the digital output seems to be ok! (The gigabyte card shows the same problems under an other widespread os, so it seems to be hardware related)
The mail would have been a little longer... but typing everything twice is bothering to much. Tim _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
