Make sure you're using the proper X driver in your /etc/X11/Xorg.conf

There are some of those, but so is the fact with

A. what's the output of:
$ rpm -qa --queryformat "%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n" | grep
fc7
B. What's your hardware/Xorg configuration? Are you using compiz &
friends?
C. Are you using gnome or KDE? If you create a new user and login into
the new account - are you hitting the same problem?

Hi,
Please check that the process of your X server is not Xgl.
Had the same problem problem with kubuntu gutsy.
