[K12OSN] X locking up a server.

[Doug Simpson]

It fails with both of these:

Fedora Core 2.6.12-2.3.legacy_FC3smp
Fedora Core (2.6.12-2.3.legacy_FC3)

I have several older ones (one of which may have been working before I did 
the re-install, but not sure).

I will keep falling back until it works and see what happens.

Thanks!
