Oh that isn't good, I didn't think I'd done much in recent F9 updates.
Yeah, that's my concern.
Try pulling back to the older F9 xorg-x11-drv-ati, say -15.
Ok, I'll try that sometime this week - can I do that independently of
any other downgrades? (last time I played with X drivers much I was
rebuilding the whole X server anyway - my instinct tells me I can just
downgrade this package without having problems in this case).
If its the kernel it must be something I've upstreamed.
Yeah, I'll start with the X driver itself. Hopefully it's just something
in there that's changed to cause my recent woes.
Jon.
