After some ACPI events, x.org-7.3 fails on my system. In particular, the screen simply goes black and the laptop ceases to respond to anything except SSH from a remote system if it is running on battery power, and and goes black if I try to put the system in sleep mode. With x.org versions 6.x neither of these problems existed on this system. Once I've plugged the system in and restarted, I can only get startx to work if I've first run Xorg -keeptty as root. It's using an ATI Mobility Radeon M300, with the generic 2D "ati" driver. Switching to the 2D "radeon" driver doesn't help any. Is this a known issue that I haven't been able to track down online, or am I suffering alone with this one for the moment? Is there any troubleshooting advice for this particular problem that anyone can offer me? -- CCD CopyWrite Chad Perrin [ http://ccd.apotheon.org ] Marvin Minsky: "It's just incredible that a trillion-synapse computer could actually spend Saturday afternoon watching a football game."
