I add a similar problem too. Using sddm with xfce4. Login agent 'sddm' with same symptoms as yours. I fixed it by : A downgraded xf86-video-ati to previous version, Adjusted screen set-up to xorg default ( change from 1600x1200 @75hz to 60hz which is the default set-up for all distro on that machine) Removed all config in radeon at /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-radeon.conf Reboot @ upgrade xf86-video-ati to 7.10 Upgraded successfully ! Customized radeon with previous set-up Hope this work for you if you try !</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
