I had this problem when I was running the nvidia kernel tainting driver for my xserver. It only happened when the fancy graphical boot manager was being used - it did not happen (even booting to gdm) if I turned of the fancy graphical boot manager. See if the same is the case for you. If yes - then I'm guessing there is an issue with the graphical boot process and your video driver. If it's a kernel tainting video driver, RH/Fedora will not support it (as I found out in my bug report) - if it's an OSS video driver - then PLEASE report the bug, so that when it is fixed, I can send the details of how it was fixed in an OSS driver to nvidia so that maybe they can patch their css driver. -- Cheap Linux CD's - http://mpeters.us/linux/
