This sounds like new HD vega cards, I think you need to track the logs. or provide any information that maybe could help to identify the problem. I had almost the same problem with my ATI HD card, with the latest update of XORG and -CURRENT it just working fine (with visual effects enabled). In most of the cases happended to me the vega card totally hang the mouse still move but it not responding to repaint anything so you can't event switch to terminal. so if you have some luck hit the power button and wait the machine to shutdown or just disable the visual effects :) Regards, Mina R Waheeb On Mon, Jul 12, 2010 at 11:47 PM, Yuri <yuri@rawbw.com> wrote: > I run KDE4 with nvidia card.
