No, there were no Xorg related packages in the last yum update. There WERE some Xorg packages in the update before last. The thing is, I don't recall using the logout feature until recently. Is there an easier fix than reinstall everything? It would be a good excuse to upgrade to CentOS 5, except I don't really need or want to at this point.

I'm using the onboard video card. I think the driver should be unichrome(?) I installed the unichrome driver on it a long time ago. Is this the section I should be interested in? Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "via" VendorName "VIA Tech" BoardName "via" EndSection By the way, it used to work fine. It only started acting like this yesterday. Mind you, I don't log out a lot though. I usually start it up, leave it on for a long time, shut down (sometimes), or start it up after recovering from a power interruption (sometimes). The last thing I can remember doing that could've caused this is when I ran a "yum upgrade" and updated some packages at the same time.

I'm running CentOS 4.7. I'm having the following problem: On logging out from a GNOME session (Actions -> Log Out -> Log Out), the computer simply hangs. The Caps Lock and Scroll lock keys on the keyboard are flashing. I can ping it from another computer, but services like VNC and Webmin won't work anymore. What should I do to troubleshoot the issue? Which log files should I check? Thanks, gillbates New Email names for you! Get the Email name you've always wanted on the new @ymail and @rocketmail.
