KDE compositing (desktop effects) was working spledidly until today's updates of mesa/glx. After updating, it was no longer possible to log into KDE with desktop effects enabled (gnome login remains possible, but compix is untested).
As a result, I culled the latest mesa-7.6-0.16 from koji, but the problem remains: no KDE login with desktop effects enabled.
During installation I check "customize now" and when I come to the Languages section I don't select any of those languages. Yet a whole bunch of Asian fonts and input methods get installed anyway. Is this a mistake or a policy?

Various packages require multiple fonts to work. Get the name of the package you are worried about and try
rpm -q --whatrequires <package_name>
That will tell you what most likely pulled it in.

I just removed a whole bunch of them with rpm -e and it didn't say they were needed by anything.

We need to know what your hardware is.

My desktop:

Haven't updated the laptop, but it also has Intel graphics. Likely the same problem, as the laptop is generally even touchier than the desktop, it having an older Intel board, namely Intel Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express.

I just updated the laptop. Same problem. Then used the koji versions (7.6-0.16) and still the same problem. I was forced to disable compositing to log in.

Thanks...please file a bug, then, with your hardware information included.

...and mention it on https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F12/FEDORA-2009-11805 , and give it negative karma. Remember, this is the list for Rawhide testing. Unless you state you're using F12 I'm going to assume you're using Rawhide. I only caught this when I realized there hasn't been any update to mesa in Rawhide yet.

You have to pull them in manually since dist-f13 doesn't inherit from dist-f12-updates-candidate nor dist-f12-updates-testing and hence won't get it from f12 builds unless they make it into updates (or were in the release).
The radeon development still seems to be happening in f12, so if you are in rawhide and you want the latest and hopefully greatest radeon support, you need to keep an eye on stuff built by airlied.

Oops, I forgot. I usually use rawhide, but it flipped earlier in the week. I forgot. I'm now just plain f12, but with *updates-testing* enabled.
Right, so as I said, file some feedback on Bodhi. thanks!
