Hi -- oops'ing when I boot straight into the kde desktop. When I boot in runlevel 3, then startx works fine. If I swapout radeon X11 driver and use vesa no problem. I'm unsure of what is causing the problem. No oops info in the log but do be a "flashing" caps-lock, scroll-lock. Can anyone advise me on getting info on the oops? I'd like to learn more about this kind of troubleshooting. I have read /usr/src/linux/Documentation/oops-tracing.txt.
