The problem mentioned in the following threads: http://www.uwsg.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0109.1/0932.html http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/xpert/2001-September/011055.html http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/xpert/2001-September/011230.html Is fixed in at least 2.4.9-ac10. I haven't been a regular user of the -ac series so I can't say when exactly this was fixed. However, this problem still persists in Linus 2.4.10-pre10. Can anyone who chimed in with similar problems to mine try said kernel (2.4.9-ac10) and provide any feedback? It would excellent if the exact fix could be identified. Thanks, Jeffrey H.

Its very hard to figure out what might be involved. Later 2.4 kernels we have fixed the odd possible candidate where segment registers or LDT propogation on SMP might go awry but nothing that really explains the X11 ones and whether they are PCI/AGP setup , power management or kernel bug triggered Alan _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
