Testing - kernel-2.6.9-1.715_FC3 panics on GUI Exit

[Jim Cornette <fct-cornette insight rr com>]

I just did a fresh install of FC3 and then applied the updates available 
from the FC3 testing and updates repository to my computer. I had 
several problems but the kernel panic seems to be the greatest.

The problem seems to be triggered when exiting the GUI. When booting in 
runlevel 5 and logging out of X, the hourglass stays in the center of 
the screen and the caplocks light flashes.
When booted into runlevel 3 and closing down, the text on the screen 
displays a series of numbers and states that it has a panic condition 
and the cap-locks light is flashing.

Synaptics is a problem also with the mouse not functioning, if this 
could be a related issue. The mouse was working on the runlevel 3 test 
and not functioning for the runlevel 5 error.
