I've tried all of the suggestions here and in the bugzilla report (leaving off the kernel parameters, adding the option to xorg.conf, etc.) all to no avail. So, may I ask a few questions? - are you using the ATI fglrx package [which, btw, is nicely packaged by livna] ? - which radeon card are you using? - are you by any chance using the ipw2200 (2915ABG) adapter? I'm starting to suspect the above although I'm seeing some very flaky behavior where the 2.6.17-1.2139 kernel fails to complete even some of the earliest boot stages -- and I'm having *none* of these problems with older kernels. I wonder whats going wrong...? Ed -- Edward H.
