Hi apizz! Step zero, try a ctl+alt+F1 when the machine is "hung" and see if you obtain a console login prompt (X-less console session). You should have one running available by ctl+alt+(F1 to F6). If memory serves F7 returns you to your X session and F8 yeilds the console screen just before your X session started. Step one, go to /var/log and look at Xorg0.log, syslog, dmesg, and any others that appear to be related to the areas that may well effect this. Look for warnings (WW) and errors (EE). Step two, google your specific hardware along with the word "linux" and then "FC 6" adding and subtracting words to move toward relavence. Google is powerful and has some very good search tools. It is one of your best friends when troubleshooting Linux of any flavor. Good Hunting! Tod
