I noticed something else -- when DRM fails to come up in time, and the Workspace Switcher fails to work -- metacity has exited because compiz has decided to start instead???? 3D is far too slow on this machine to even consider running compiz so I removed compiz (and everything that depends on it), and now gnome, metacity and the Workspace Switcher work perfectly every time whether DRM is up and running already or not. So I guess this bug comes down to: why does compiz decide to run, and why does it interfere with the running of the Workspace Switcher. I leave it to you guys to decide what to do about this bug, whether it be gdm, compiz, gnome, X, or DRI related. I will be happy to provide any info which might resolve this problem. (I won't even be upset if you decide to close it as WONTFIX -- I am already happy with gnome on 11.0 -- just want to help make the release as perfect as possible.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It also fixes the handling of OpenType/CFF fonts with embedded bitmaps, which will no longer be mistaken for bitmap fonts. - fonttosfnt 1.0.4 * This version fixes a crash on architectures that have an 'interesting' implementation of va_list, such as AMD64. It also <end quote> The other problem (that DRM does not come up the first time X starts) is not important to me, so feel free to close this bug. However, if you do want to fix _that_, I will be very happy to do whatever I can to help. The situation with this laptop is slightly odd in that the internal monitor is 1440x1050@60Hz, but the 19" external monitor DDC says that _its_ best resolution is 1280x1024@85Hz (although it is capable of doing 1600x1400@60Hz). With 10.2 I hand modified the xorg.conf to do 1440x1050@60Hz (because Sax won't allow me to select it), but for 11.0 I have decided to go with the 1280x1024@85Hz since it looks so much sharper. Thank you for your time. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
