I did the ps thing. Only one Xorg process was running. I also tried kills in the following order: kill -TERM (-15) kill -SEGV (-11) kill -KILL (-9) The first two did nothing. The last kill (which is not blockable) changed the process name from "Xorg" to "[Xorg]" and blanked the /proc/xxx/exe symlink; but otherwise the Xorg process remained in a run state consuming 100% cpu. BTW, I've now looked through the Xorg.0.log file, and nothing interesting shows up in it when this "hang" occurs. Also the video card driver being loaded is the "radeon_drv.so" that comes with F9. -- Deron Meranda -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
