Ok, so the good news is the `debug-on-event' trick works. If you got a lockup, you can get a classic elisp backtrace by sending the SIGUSR2 to the Emacs process. The bad news is that I don't know yet how to reproduce the lockup. It seems to happen mostly (if not only) when I use org-mode + visual-line-mode + adaptive-wrap-prefix-mode + an input-method like latin-postfix. And it probably has to do with the cache mechanism. I'll try to reproduce it with the cache disabled but it hard to test because, as I said, I don't know how to reproduce it yet. I'll keep testing and see if I can reproduce it reliably. Stay tuned! -- Daimrod/Greg
