After a little experimentation and a lot of waiting for my machine to reboot I have determined that it has nothing to do with GDM at all. Even startx can hose my machine. The only thing that keeps things remotely useable is the fact that it never locks up the machine the first time it runs.
So where does the Radeon driver development take place? Is there a place to report this sort of thing so that the debugging can happen?

Or alternatively, is this going to be fixed any time soon? _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
