[opensuse-factory] Bad lock up in gnome (fresh RC4)
I just did a fresh install of RC4 on a T61p and gnome is having some weird stability issues. Some leading to gnome and it just locking up, requiring a hard reboot. RC2/3 felt more stable. (they were upgrades from RC1, I think). Also after installing the nvidia drivers, simple-ccms (can't remember the name) fails because it can't find xgl. I thought there was a switch away from that? In order to get it to work, I had to manually run xgl-switch --enable. Before that the console would say, /usr/sbin/compiz(core) failed or something like that after not being able to find xgl Stephen --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Using reiserfs? If so, its probably: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=389656

It should look for xgl, but also for nvidia it should try to use the
driver directly.

That could be. I re installed with ext3 and that problem seems to have gone away.

I wish I still had the output :( I seemed to do a check for nvidia and pass. so not sure what the deal is???? oh well Stephen --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
