Desktop is FC4 gnome-desktop-2.10.0-5. I don't think I have anything fancy in it, apart from the mini-icons on the top panel which include oldies (Evolution, Mozilla) and actually used stuff (Firefox, gnome-terminal, Thunderbird, Gaim, and the volume control). > if you just run X, does it always start to the X cursor without hanging.. Will try. Note however, when I experience the problem X doesn't really "hang" - it spins in CPU. > Try disabling pre-empt also.. if you get a chance.. Will also build no-preempt kernels in the near future. > I've got the same chip on an evaluation card in my PC at the moment, > and I've been running the same X 6.8.2 on it for a while with no > issues on the latest kernels.. For that matter, I'm running it now without issues... it seems to get in the weird state only on startup. Thanks !
