tuxracer and chromium locks X

[John R. Munn]

I experienced tuxracer and Critical Mass seeming to lock up X also (blank 
screen and have to do a hard reboot). What I found was that in a reboot after 
an update (FC2 Test1) that X now mis-identified my monitor. When I corrected 
this, these games ran fine again. One of the problems is that these games 
take exclusive use of the mouse and keyboard so when you have the blank 
screen you can't see to get out of them and can't even use ctrl-alt-backspace 
or ctrl-alt-del.

So, try checking your monitor setting for X.
