I did an yum uprate yesterday and > with other things i also updated x server My Latitude D810 was not affected by the original bug, but your report means that I'll be applying no further undates until the GX270 is working again. I opened the following bug for the GX270 X-related bug(s). https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=476578 There are 2 iterations of Xorg.0.log files attached. The first is from the original problem. That had some d-bus problems that were solved by the latest PolicyKit update, but the underlying X-related problems remained. Hopefully Ajax can analyze/fix this one sometime soon.

It appears that in the first week of December something broke (or exposed an existing bug that broke) either the X-windows server or lots of drivers. If you type "a" during the boot sequence and then append a "3" to the grub command line you can log into your system in text (non-X) mode. "yum update" from the command line will install all ready updates... unfortunately there isn't one yet that fixes this problem. All I can advise is patience. The good news is that enough folks are broken 100% of the time that ajax and crew should be able to track down and fix this problem (perhaps after the holidays). I'm lucky that my other two Linux installs are on ATI GPUs, but using the VESA driver (which isn't accelerated and does not seem to be affected).

Try reinstall the driver for your ATI. Then change the driver name in xorg.conf file from VESA to ATI < driver name. After that switch to level 5 via init 5 command. --- Yours, Waleed Harbi If you want your goals to come true, don't sleep.
