First off, this bug specifically refers to the use of the binary NVidia
driver, which I know at least one of the posters on this thread says that
they are not using. But, the manifestations described are just like what
you all are describing, and they are exactly what I WAS experiencing with
Fedora 12:

Steven, reading through the info on that bug, I can confirm that the "-12"
packages mentioned in it have solved this issue for me (yay!). Thanks for
passing the bugzilla link along; *very* helpful.
