Well I did the "yum update" and it took forever, but it did it. I noticed

options, and the problem is still happening.

Any other ideas?

Boot into init level 3 and update your computer's software:

"yum update"

The original distribution's xorg-xll utilities didn't get along with
this graphics processor very well.

Thanks a lot for the help. Unfortunately I don't know how to "boot into init level 3" means. (I tried a variety of ways but none of them worked. Unfortunately a google search came up blank). Could you tell me how to boot into init level 3 (or provide a link that tells me).

I'm assuming once I'm in init level 3 all I do is type "yum update",
something is automatically downloaded and installed, and then I just
restart the computer. Is there anything else I should do after that?

Thanks again
John

To enter level 3 type init 3 in a terminal. If you are in X windows you can enter control-alt-F1 to get to a console where you can log in. You will be in level 3 also.

Add the line below to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.

Option "NoAccel"

This option goes in the driver section of the file.

See this bug for details on the whole bug scenerio.
