People,

I upgraded from F10 + Gnome to F11 + XFCE and found that I am getting
fairly frequent screen lockups which require a remote shutdown and at
least on one occasion required a power reset. I am having heat problems
though so I am not sure if the problems are related to the upgrade or
deteriorating hardware. Does anyone know of stability problems with
XFCE?

Thanks,

Phil.


Mine has been very stable but I did a clean install not upgrade
Linux naxos 2.6.29.6-213.fc11.x86_64

There are a few graphics driver issues in F11 due to the large
changes going on in X-Windows currently that can lock up the XServer.
Different graphics cards are affected more than others. Certainly
I have lockups with some ATI cards ...

I should have said I did a clean install as well.

The lockups are happening every couple/few days but there is nothing in /var/log/messages about it - is there some sort of logging of the video driver I can do to help debug the problem?

Thanks,

Phil.
