I never had any problems with previously, but tried which is what it is. Killed X started X again, and nothing had changed. My xorg.conf was still the same but returned to after the reboot. I will have to google the method that has been posted on this list to have xorg.conf stick after modifications were made it. I actually think that my graphics card might be slowly getting crook.

I had the same problem; one one machine, it was paralyzing. I don't know what it means; hopefully someone who understands better will enlighten both of us. But I did manage to get it to go away by adding the following two stanzas to /etc/X11/xorg.conf: Section "ServerFlags" Option "AIGLX" "off" EndSection Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Disable" EndSection All the usual warnings apply. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP key 1024D/99421A63 2005-01-05 EE51 79E9 F244 D734 A012 1CEC 7813 9FE9 9942 1A63 gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 99421A63 signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Display is jerky...........
My screen jumps about and in my /var/log/Xorg.0.log I have this line:- (EE) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable I am wondering if someone might tell me what this means? This laptop has had no problems previously. There was a reference about this in Ubuntu and that this should be added to the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file:- Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "0" EndSection But it didn't appear to help. Any suggestions welcome. TIA Charlie -- Registered Linux User:- 329524 +++ A Zen master said to a monk: "You must see the universe in your cup."
