We don't think it's 'AMD users', because we've tested other systems with AMD graphics adapters and they work fine. But it *may* be 'hybrid graphics laptops', which would be something of a problem because there's a lot of those. So can I ask the list: can anyone who has a laptop with hybrid graphics (one with two adapters, one Intel, one higher-powered AMD or NVIDIA) boot the F22 Beta RC1 Workstation live image and let us know if they successfully reach a desktop? Thanks! It'd be good to have more data on how widespread this problem is. > Some applications like Libre Office will crash X sesion meaning the > bug is > possibly related to the driver (xorg-x11-drv-ati).
