There are a number of conditions that I know of that requirer a reboot, thought I don't know the cause.
1. When changing from dri to binary nvidia drivers, apps fail to use the new libGLs. Ldconfig is not enuf and a reboot may be needed. This was reproducible, and I could not get libGL to bind with ought rebooting. 2. If AMD760 agpgart is unloaded then after reloading agpgart.o and radeon.o. When you run X it will lock up and you will have to hit the reset button. Could ether of these be related? --- Keith Whitwell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > >>Next, tuxracer ran, but the menus were basically unusable.
