similar to: Apps segfaulting, problem with X?

I can play WoW perfectly, it is 100% stable and I can get great fps. One problem though, when I minimize the game and I maximize it, sometimes I can just keep playing happily but sometimes thats not the case. I minimize it, maximize it again and the FPS drops to about 10-20fps (anywhere). As you might know, this is VERY annoying, I've tried changing loads of settings in-game with no help.

Hi, I just installed the latest nouveau driver from git to try if it works and after modifying my xorg.conf and switching to xorg-x11 opengl startx changes screenmode (screen gets black) and nothing more happens. I can ssh from another maschine and see that X takes 100% CPU but nothing more happens. I am on Gentoo Linux, followed the guide from the Wiki, have Xorg-x11-7.2, tuxonice patched

I try to install the latest nvidia driver. kernel is 2.6.12.6(xen 3.0) and Xorg is used. Everything is ok except monitor. I''m sure that X is running. No error information. Some warning information is here.

Hello list, I just had a first shot at the "nouveau" Xorg driver, I'm a regular "nv" user. It compiled and installed without a itch in a short time, congrats (great instructions on http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/InstallNouveau), ran fine... but with a funny vertical fencing effect: one vertical line out of two was black. After a few minutes, the effect would

I have two monitors, one landscape and the other portrait. When I rotate the portrait monitor using xrandr (or the xorg.conf option) the mouse cursor on the landscape monitor is also rotated and the "click point" is no longer below the cursor (this makes the mouse practically unusable). The cursor is correct on the rotated monitor. Setting NoAccel "False" and HWCursor

Hello, I try to run StarCraft on FreeBSD 7.0 using wine 1.1.1. The game hangs while I'm running it (I can see loading and image with 3 characters). Also StarEdit is very slow, however it doesn't hang. I installed Stronghold Crousader on FreeBSD using wine and it seems to work fine. I installed some linux games (unreal tournament 2004, unreal tournament, tuxracer) and I suppose that DRI

Last Thursday, for some reason (possibly a power failure), my work desktop had a different video configuration than when I left Wednesday evening. I have two 17" flat panels configured as a two-head wide (side-by-side) single display. When I arrived on Thu, I had two individual desktops instead, the resolution was down to 800x600, and so on. The monitor type had been reset to generic

I just purchased a Dell Inpiron 9300 from the Dell Outlet store. Installing CentOS4 went very, very smoothly until I tried configuring X. The 17" screen has a 16:10 aspect ratio with a 1920x1200 resolution. The best I could manage using system-config-display was 1600x1200. So, after a bit of research, I hand editted the xorg.conf file (reproduced below) and it now works great. Maybe

I've been working hard to get my Wacom tablet to work as my primary pointing device. I've installed the drivers and followed the instructions at the Linux Wacom project at Sourceforge. And I've been largely successful. The drivers are working, the configuration utilities are working. I'm just one step away from success. Apparently the problem is that my mouse and my USB tablet
