Pretty vague; what are the specs ? How much ram/swap etc. ? I have that happen every once and awhile on my Toshiba 1800 with 128 mb of ram; but that's expected when running a web browser on Xorg with such little ram. I'm going to upgrade once I can find some for my model. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
