Hi all I've got Fedora core 12 installed

I open up my documents, email, firefox, pidgin and then after I come back to my desk it all vanishes.

I've had a look in the menus such as power etc but there doesn't' seem to be anything in there it looks like my session keeps restarting after a certain time I would say 30-60 minutes of inactivity

does anyone have any way to stop this happening or any other logic?
 
in the logs I see this:


Apr 19 10:29:58 localhost pulseaudio[2102]: pid.c: Daemon already running.
Apr 19 10:36:17 localhost kernel: [drm:radeon_cs_ioctl] *ERROR* Failed to parse
relocation !
Apr 19 10:42:08 localhost kernel: [drm:radeon_cs_ioctl] *ERROR* Failed to parse
relocation !
Apr 19 11:01:36 localhost kernel: imklog 4.4.2, log source = /proc/kmsg started.


looks likt it points to my graphics card
could be the screen saver just changed that now
providing more information
 
It sounds more like a hardware failure to me, do you have a dual boot to see if the same thing happens in another OS? Or perhaps run a livecd for a while to see if the same thing happens.
 
thanks for the above

I've changed my screensaver and so far so good
will leave pc on overnight and see how it responds

also disabled my fancy compfusion graphics - might be that too
 
SORTED
looks good had to disable compfusion arggh changed my screen saver it is one of those two that caused the problem
