X11R6.7 in FC2T3 distro

[Gene Heskett]

Greetings;

I'm having a problem with severe screen contamination when recovering 
from a blanked state.  I must close a terminal window while running 
blind, or some other way to force a total screen refresh.

The video card is a Diamond Viper 330, a riva128 equipt card but with 
only 4 megs of memory.  That boggles my mind right there, but I 
inherited the box...

Someone on the fedora-test-list mentioned that it might be related to 
APM in the kernel shutting down the video memory, or that it might be 
something miss-configured in the XF86Config (or whatever its called 
now) file.

Can anyone shine a wee bit of light on this for me?

Cheers, Gene
