First off, this bug specifically refers to the use of the binary NVidia driver, which I know at least one of the posters on this thread says that they are not using. But, the manifestations described are just like what you all are describing, and they are exactly what I WAS experiencing with Fedora 12: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=533620 Also, check this out: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F12_bugs#Problems_when_using_KDE_with_the_proprietary_NVIDIA_graphics_driver.2C_some_Radeon_dual- head_configurations.2C_or_nouveau_with_KMS_disabled In addition, I needed to follow the steps that appear under the "Fedora 12 Special Notes" section on the below linked page: http://www.mjmwired.net/resources/mjm-fedora-nvidia.html Applying the information contained in the above links fixed my problem, which at least LOOKS exactly like what you are describing. If you have any questions about the "various" test builds of xorg that are involved in making all of this possible, I will get back to you after I get home from work today... Steven P. Ulrick P.S.: For some reason I have been having issues with KDE's KMail and the breaking of links. So at least one of the above quoted links might be broken... -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
