Sorry it has taken me so long to get back with this. I have been busy with
other things. I realized that I was having the Crash Problems any time I ran
Digikam. Not just when I go into the Color Settings Window. So, I uninstalled
Digikam right after my last post on 01-13-11 and have had no more problems with
my X Session Crashing to date, 03-12-11. A couple of weeks to a month after I
uninstalled Digikam, I also uninstalled all but the xorg-x11-drv-catalyst
driver for my Radeon Video Card. I did have an nVidia Driver installed that was
in a yum install list that I made to install all of my favorite Apps at one
time. But the nVidia driver really just laid dormant, since I don't have an
nVidia Card in this machine. I've done this for years in both Fedora and Debian
with no problems that I can remember. I only have an Onborad Intel Chip and the
new Radeon Video Card in this machine. I have not re-installed Digikam because
I don't want to risk having the Crashing problems again. I may try Digikam
again when I have the time to deal only with it and risk the crashes again.
It's a shame that it doesn't work with Fedora 14 on the Gnome Desktop for me. I
have many, many other Apps installed that give no problems and have never had
my x11 Desktop Crash Since I uninstalled Digikam with or without the extra
unused Video Drivers. I keep thinking that I have encountered this problem with
Digikam in years past and just uninstalled it and went on. I know there was a
Graphics App with good features, that I had allot of problems with and gave up
on it back in about Fedora 7. Not sure now. But, I had just recently found
Digikam in my Fedora 14 Repos and decided to try it out. I think I may have
been through this before!:O I'm no Coder. But I do know this... You can't
expect Operating Systems and Desktop Applications to be written to work with
each individual Software Application. Each Application has to be written to
work in each and every OS and Desktop Application the the Developers want it to
run on.
