Paul It behaved all day yesterday and I was into my 7th hour today when, finally, it happened again. Top shows no cpu hogging (near idle as far as I can see) and /var/log/messages doesn't report anything. I ran your test and sat on the Shift Key for over a minute. No notices. Figuring that was that, I ssh-ed into the machine to salvage what I was doing before killing the session. That took about 20 minutes and, somewhere around the 15th minute when I was mousing in one of the dead shells to scroll my history to make sure I had got everything, I accidentally brushed a key and, lo and behold, the keyboard was alive. Everything that had been typed while testing its dead-ness was not there, so all the input was not buffered waiting to be processed (as though the characters never made it to the computer). So now I have to consider that "something" (be it hardware or software) is causing the keyboard to not exist to the computer for an unknown period of time. On one of the earlier tests, I waited about 10 minutes before killing and hadn't gotten the keyboard back by then. I will try Ed's idea of a different keyboard, but I do want to ask if this new "experiment result" indicates additional things to consider in trying to fix it.

Check to see if selinux is blocking the remove. Also check the permissions on /usr/lib64/libsensors.a (both regular permissions and "lsattr"). It's most likely that the library is owned by root and doesn't have "other write" permissions. If you're building as an ordinary user, the rpmbuild script won't be able to remove the old library unless it does a "sudo" or "su" before the "install" step. The old library may also have the immutable flag set ("lsattr /usr/lib64/libsensors.a" would show the "i" flag), in which case you'd have to "chattr -i /usr/lib64/libsensors.a" (as the root user or a user with the CAP_SYS_RESOURCE capability) to remove it. -- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigitalri...@alldigital.com - - AIM/Skype: therps2ICQ: 22643734Yahoo: origrps2 - -- - Memory is the second thing to go, but I can't remember the first! - -- -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

X hangs when screen blanks on docked laptop
I have a Dell Latitude E6410 with nVidia graphics, using the nouveau driver in F17 and gnome-shell. When the machine is docked and using the remote display, all is well until the screen blanker times out. After that, I'm unable to wake the screen up. Opening the lid doesn't help (not too surprising, given that the main screen is set to be off when the remote is attached); switching to a VC doesn't help (which is surprising). The keyboard still works, so I can blindly switch to a VC and reboot, but it's not workable to have to reboot after every 10 minutes of idle time. I created a second userid and tried working with that, and the problem does not recur there, so it apparently has something to do with the configuration of my main userid. I had at one point installed the weather extension and the system monitor extension, but they were problematic so I deleted them (before I tried the experiment with the other userid). That fixed a problem where the screen wouldn't wake up even when undocked, but hasn't fixed this. So any idea what I should look for in my userid's configuration files to fix this?
