(Apologies to other Listers for the semi-long system log cut and pasted into this list-mail)
My newly acquired Digital Audio Dual 533 has experienced a couple of semi-random freezes lately. I say semi-random, since I believe the RAM is good, and one time I was running a fairly old, cpu hog, program called Reason 3.0.5 by Propellerhead. Perhaps it is due to something other than the randomness of bad RAM? It just totally freezes with the screen showing a snapshot of the current (non)activity, requiring a Restart using the Restart button on the case. This has only happened twice over the last few weeks of running my newly acquired DA. Until my second copy of Leopard arrives ... I'm using a clone of Leopard 10.5.7 with a full 1.5GB RAM on a cpu upgraded DA mobo. It was upgraded by someone else with an Apple Digital Audio Dual 533. It has an elderly (legacy) Sonnet Trio PCI card with a 500GB Seagate attached. (I'm getting a new Firmtek SATA controller and a 1TB Seagate 7200.12 today, so I will be changing things around later this afternoon ... I'm not totally trusting of the Trio because of its age ... and a couple of bent-back-into-place ATA connector prongs ... maybe that's it?) I tried looking at the system log through Console, but didn't see anything at the point of the freeze. I did find that Firefox was evidently calling a debugger of some sort. Then on a next restart, the log was gone. Here is a recent log, not associated with a freeze, but showing the Firefox activity, and the log being turned over. Any suggestions how to proceed? Wait for the next freeze, and capture the log right away if possible? What's causing it to be turned over? Leopard protecting itself from a possible corrupt log file? I admit I have taken this clone from my QS 2002, and at one point, got rid of something called /var/db/BootCache.playlist at someone's suggestion, and it seems to be acting up a bit around that as well. I thought files like this were regenerated automatically as needed ... Suggestions welcomed.
