It has happened 3-4 times randomly in last 3 months that after sitting idle for sometime it hangs... I see a frozen Xscreensaver and tapping the mouspad (its a laptop) doesnt get it off....... ctrl+alt+f1 doesnt work (ctrl+at+(+)/(-) has never worked for me somehow) and the only option I got is reboot. I know this may not be linux crash... may be Xfree crash but then again when we say windows crash.. what component do we mean? Still this is not similar to BSOD so for that... err....what about kernel panic!!!!! regards Spundun
