Good day,
Up until now, I have been using non-enhanced screen mode settings in order to save some VRAM. After installing 3.10, I could get it to crash after a bit of usage. From dragging a window to trying to play a video in MPlayer, it would cause the system to either freeze, drop the screen mode and throw my monitor into a "invalid resolution", or start to draw random artifacts on the screen depending how the window is being dragged.
I decided to enable the Enhanced screen mode option, and it has fixed it from doing random crashes. The downside is that users with Mac Mini G4 computers with limited 32MB VRam, it can get consumed pretty fast. I just run a 1280x720 resolution on my MDD Mac with a stock Radeon 9000 Pro video card, which I believe has 64MB VRam. Either way, hope this helps some of you out there.
