Dell Latitude CSx with 256MB, Neomagic 256 ZX, 2.4.12 + woody + KDE 2.2.2 I use to have similar problems, the console locked up randomly when working exclusively in X - until I found these these options in some obscured driver documentation: Option "XaaNoScanlineImageWriteRect" Option "XaaNoScanlineCPUToScreenColorExpandFill" No lockups since. Tochpad behaves better (no issues after resume from disk) with Protocol set to "PS/2", not the detected "ImPS/2" in XF86Config-4. cheers Jacek
