Not sure what the best remedy is. Disabling hardware acceleration might help. Or downgrade the X ? There was a report of the recent X.org update breaking the S3 savage chip in early April. One remedy is to fall back to the vesa driver, by removing xorg-x11-drv-savage and removing or adapting Xorg.conf. The same happened to the nv driver with at least one chip. -- Stephan Wiesand DESY -DV- Platanenenallee 6 15738 Zeuthen, Germany
Re: usb memory stick with dual linux boot

Flags to pay special attention to (when reading the man page and/or script source) include --multi and --livedir. You'll probably have to edit some syslinux / extlinux config, but it shouldn't be too difficult. Not exactly straightforward, but the best I could find (wanted to sample XCFE/KDE/GNOME3/LXDE versions of fedora). Might need a more recent version than what's available in SL (dunno when the multi-stuff got added), and unless you're running a DE on SL, you probably don't want to install it from the sl repo (dependencies apparently include firstboot, among others...). Should be possible to figure out dependencies for just that tool and get the script from the git repo on fedorahosted.org (or something).
