Description Philippe Leblanc 2012-08-27 00:30:44 CEST
Description of problem:
I experience frequent crashes while working in gnome. The crash appears to result in the X server simply restarting as if ctl-alt-backspace had been pressed. The xorg log files indicate that something in the graphics subsytem is crashing.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
The crashes are rather random. Sometimes they happen within a minute of login in while sometimes the system can run for hours before the crash is experienced.

Steps to Reproduce:

I've recently installed Mageia 3 alpha 3, and it has been stable with 2 days of use. Unless someone else is experiencing the crash, this bug appears to be solved.
