Thanks for the answer. The question is that when I say hang up, I'm saying the I cannot do anything. I have tested the Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to kill the X, but the answer was nothing. However, I have to admit that I didn't test the Ctrl-Alt-F1 option. I would try the next time. But, I think that the kernel isn't alive. Sometimes I have tried to make a telnet from another box, I couldn't. I accept opinions. Leo For really sticky situations look in the kernel documentation for "sys-request" commands. If you are in the current window (<ALT>F7) of the xsession you would like to recover from you might be able to kill it with a sysrequest (<ALT>+<SysRq>+k) there are many powerful options for this however and reading the documentation is the best bet =) Hope This Helps, Lonny Selinger
