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?
