This is a problem with the AMD761 chipset, because it kinda non-standard. It seems like I read that it was their AGP implementation. A fix in X's drivers to work with the 761 would help greatly. I found a few mailng list discussions on it, and they said that they're "working on it." As for the rebooting, well, X runs as root and talks directly to hardware. Programs that do that are always threats. ...troy. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >Hi all, > >I'm following -STABLE. I have an Athlon 1400 MHz on an Asus A7A266, with a >Radeon VIVO graphics card.
