CentOS - Aug 2006 - Repost: System crash on loading gdm revisited

Hello -

I never heard back on this and continue to experience this bug.
Can someone help me to locate the patch for this so that I can
be sure it's included in my source?

It's not happening on every boot, but about every other or third.
And just as described in the bug report (the boot works OK, but
at the end rather than GDM starting nicely, I get a "fuzzy" screen
and the system crashes requiring a power cycle) but I don't get the
"kernel BUG" message in my logs.

If I should submit this a but report to bugs.centos.org, please
let me know.

Thanks,
Debbie

your initial question was Rocks related ? maybe you should be talking to
them instead ?

also, have you upgraded to the latest 4.4 pkg set ? do you still have
this issue ? can you provide some more details about the hardware spec
you are using ? and on bugs.centos.org will be a good idea.
