I recall that I use to have this problem sometimes with the Sun Ray, running that concurrently with the Sun Secure Global Desktop software. As I only have 1GB RAM in the Sun Enterprise 420R server it did similar things... so the issue is live memory here I am pretty certain. That really bites!!!
Here is top output: load averages: 0.03, 0.18, 0.14; up 0+00:09:08 05:03:10 59 processes: 58 sleeping, 1 on cpu CPU states: 98.8% idle, 0.0% user, 1.2% kernel, 0.0% iowait, 0.0% swap Kernel: 210 ctxsw, 290 intr, 116 syscall Memory: 502M phys mem, 29M free mem, 2047M total swap, 2047M free swap I've noticed with about 80-100MB main memory remaining the system will login, however anything below 60MB-ish the system will have problems! This must be due to the frkit POWERNOW service starting, I can't think of anything else that I've done to the system. K
