I yum update manually and haven't done it for a couple weeks.

Last night updated and audio output was extremely low + ATI rendering 
and gimp performance hangs and is laggy.

I was able to fix the audio with 'alsamixer -c 0' and scrolling over the 
level for "VIA DXS". The 'VIA DXS' columns were zero'ed. Increasing the 
first VIA DXS restored audio.

In the gimp if I use +/- to zoom in/out it pauses and same with 
select/copy/paste. Windows are tearing and hanging when I drag them 
around the screen.

Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.30.5-43.fc11.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Aug 27 
21:39:52 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc R480 [Radeon 
X800 GTO (PCIE)]

01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc R480 [Radeon X800 GTO 
(PCIE)] (Secondary)

00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.

I suppose I'll have to wait for an X11 fix not sure.

Thanks,
John
