Hello everbody:
I use Fedora 10 i386 in a Compaq Presario Notebook C735EM.
The system is updated, and my desktop is gnome with compiz fusion
enabled. The graphics card is intel.
The problem I have is that when I change the current user session to
another user, the system freezes, crashes.
All I can do is move the mouse. I can not close the X. I can not move
to terminal Cntr + Alt + F1
I tried to do before turning off compiz fusion, but also freezes.
In a virtual machine that I can not, so I guess it is problem of my
laptop.
Can someone help me?
I am not sure that there is a current bugzilla on this one (I haven't
had time to look into it), but I have this issue as well. I'm working
around it by using the following /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
---8<---- Cut Here ---
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Default Layout"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
# keyboard added by rhpxl
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "intel"
Option "NoAccel" "True"
Option "DRI" "True"
Option "DDC" "True"
Option "XVideo" "True"
Option "DevicePresence" "True"
Option "ShadowFB" "True"
Option "DisplayInfo" "True"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection
---8<---- Cut Here ---
The key thing is the following line in the Device section:
Option "NoAccel" "True"
This disables the hardware acceleration on the video card. Not great,
but it stops the hangs.
Woogie
I think there's a bugzilla for this. I saw a post about it here and
looked at a bugzilla about a week or so ago that sounds like this. I
think someone had suggested the "NoAccel" workaround in that report. I
didn't keep the link though, sorry.
I think the post about this issue was probably no more than two or three
weeks ago, so check the archives because I think that post has a link to
the bugzilla.
