Hello

I am having a problem with SuSE 7.2 and XFree86 4.1. When I close a KDE Session or Enter SAX2 Display configuration, my system completely freezes and I have to do cold reboot to recover. This happened with the origainal SuSE distro and I have upgraded KDE and XFree86 but nothing has helped

I am running AMD Thunderbird 900 MHz and an ATI Rage Pro II AGP video card. My mouse and keyboard are ps/2.

I've tried SusE Support and they have asked me for logs, but they havent put me on track at all.

If anyone knows where I should start looking for a solution, it would be quite helpful.

Thanks

Ahhh yes, try the 3.x version of xfree (just off of the top of my head, my ATI would go into terminal scrolling upon exiting from X)

If that doesn't work, I'll have to see what's different with my config (I could always send you my XF86Config file)

Or possibly upgrade to the latest version of Xfree86 (come to think of it, that sounds better).

Hello all, I installed Redhat 7.1 on a 2nd hd drv in my Pc but my problem is that I cannot get to the Xwin, after install, I am prompted to try opening the grapic Xwin side of it but instead it freezes and I have to do a cold boot and goes back to text mode. Can some one help me out with this problem, could it be my monitor config or

After all the fun of pouring through my logs, I finally found a blurb on some help site that said that AGP BIOS settings can freeze X on startup...

So I set my BIOS to failsafe settings and X/KDE worked perfectly. It ended up that the AGP Data Transfer Rate needed to be 2X, (instead of 1x or 4x)

Even though this problem pissed me off for 3 weeks, I learned a lot about X and linux in general.

Thanks for everyones help
