[CentOS] updated some packages now some windows hang after open or close
I had a need on a centos 5.4 x86_64 box to try and run with a later totem. I desired to do this by source. After installing the packages below my system comes up, I thought everything was good. thunderbird comes up firefox comes up. totem works -------- however there seems to be an issue with closing or opening windows some random time later with all three programs. It gives the impression that X is hung. Keyboard no longer works - mouse moves but cannot click on anything. ssh into the box still works. I can kill the X server and start all up again for a random time then it looks like it hangs again. I am wondering if anyone knows what this might be - perhaps another package I need to update. I am also running a radeon 3200 driver with the Catalyst binary driver. Thanks for your thoughts.

I have updated it and doing much better. jerry
