I sometimes get the same problem, on a machine which is intermittently upgraded to unstable. Its an old Acer laptop, and I had always put it down to a hardware problem, but perhaps there is another problem and it is the same one as you have been hitting. I usually find that rebooting cures the problem, but very occasionally I have to do it twice. David -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
