With Fedora 9, an update to 2.6.24.4-30 has just broken X on my machine,
while rebooting to 2.6.24.3-18 works OK. In my case X usually loads, but
the X display is scrambled. I have a Matrox 400 card in this machine. I
was wondering if they broke the Matrox driver or more general X related
code. It looks like it may be the general code, as it seems people with
various cards are complaining in various forums.
