This is probably a different issue related to Intel's new driver that doesn't work for me. How do I recover from having a clobbered X server installation?

I am also going to try running the 2.6.1 kernel from the rawhide and see if it helps me. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFAH+lFrT0x/nxLkjwRA8xmAJ0XF6IHD1YZBT9GllE6WWoLLuEF8QCeLjtt 7mWrrEA7v5ABsezUwoK1Trc= =HiMV -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
