had teh /dev/hda1 folder open on kde desktop when getting continuous crashes. as default the kde (desktop) decided to try and open this (dos) folder by default each time. as such, crashed or freezed the entire system. work around: restart (either in init3 or the failsafe desktop) as root. umount the dev (/dev/hda1 in my case) and then startup the kde desktop. the folder won't display the offending folder since it's not mounted and operations within (kde/gnome/ etc) will resume normally. Almost thought i trashed everything. -- ------------ Sent from: Lattitude (deg): 32.7130 Longitude (deg): -117.1530 Altitude (ft): 410.0 GMT to Local (hrs): -8.0 (daylight savings enabled) ------------ Created with Linux-Mandrake 7.0! http://www.linux-mandrake.com/ Currently Beta Testing Mandrake Ver >7.0
