Minor updates on previous post:
I only boot runlevel 3 and thus always use startx
(as user "root")
Once the problem has occurred:
X menu System->"Log Out root..." fails to go back to the console
(the screen clears to just showing the backgrounds and then stops)
OS is of course unaffected by this - ssh login works fine
(I use that to "shutdown -r now")
I've rolled back to xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-0.0.15-17.20091105gite1c2ef
again (nothing else changed) and will report if it happens again with this
version
