From what you've described, the problem seems to be related to the video. What card/drivers are you using?

Nvidia GeForceFX 5200 with nvidia-1.0.4496.



XDM resets the video driver between logins. If you do a Ctrl-Backspace from the XDM login screen, does it lock? How about several times?


Try using vga=0 to the kernel to disable vesafb. Still get the problem?

Try an alternative video driver - even vga! Still get the problem?

If you do still get the problem, then I would think it is more than likely (but still not definate) that the video card/driver is not the problem.

Thanks a lot for your help Jason. Due to hangs and hard resets however I've now got corrupted data and as such must reinstall. If problem persists after the new install I will try the things you mentioned above.


Many thanks
