Description ctjanney 2002-09-18 17:40:16 UTC 
Package: gnome-panel
Severity: critical
Version: 1.4.0.4
Synopsis: Gnome panel dies when starting X session
Bugzilla-Product: gnome-panel
Bugzilla-Component: Panel

Description:
Just installed Redhat 7.3 on a system with an SiS 6326 card.  The display would flicker whenever anything updateded (e.g. as the Gnome foot animated in the corner of Start Here, the screen would send blitter garbage).

I downloaded Thomas Winischhofer's SiS drv and dri files with great success...excempt the panel would crash occationally with the log dump attached to this report.  FYI, I've sent the same log dump to Thomas with the same details.

The full specs of the system are as follows:

NEC Motherboard/case, etc.
Pentium 100 Mhz
64MB RAM
SiS 6326 PCI graphics card
Netgear DEC chip 10/100 PCI network card
IDE CDROM
IDE 80GB HD
