Rajko,
The X server seems to terminate randomly (black screen) /var/log/messages states "kdm[2786]: X server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly" and I also find some lines beginning with "kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00)"
The problem first occurred while screensaver was on. I don't know which one because I use the random one.
I can reproduce the problem by starting Yast --> hardware --> hardware info. Yast starts probing and when I see "monitor" screen turns black. Not any more
Seems that some explanation is here: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/100.14.19/README/chapter-09 .html 'Interaction with pthreads'
I'll check later, thanks. First look and every necessary link seems to be there.
Got to go trough whole README, search http://bugzilla.novell.com , look change logs, which will take time.
I remember that somewhere was mentioned problem with Xorg and probing, but I can't locate that article.
-- Regards, Rajko.
Update on the FX5200 problem: Problem seems to be solved. No more lock-ups yet and Yast--> hardware --> hardware info works again. What did I do? - did the test starting X server manually several times --> no problem. - fiddling around in sax2 with monitor settings (tried to change ratio from 4/5 to 3/4 and back) (got a 17" with 1280*1024) - started NVIDIA X server settings several times but did not write to Xorg.conf I think sax2 got the right configuration in the end BTW I installed the NVidia driver with Yast at first update (just added the repository in the installation process ). During this update there was also a kernel security update.
