What version of X? Define 'crashing'. Are we talking about locking up the box so that you can't even ping it, or just X going toes up? You might want to try running CTCS (search freshmeat) on the box. It stresses (and tests) all the hardware far better than memtest86. Have you verified that this isn't an overheating problem, or dust bunnies? -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lonni J Friedman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux Step-by-step & TyGeMo http://netllama.ipfox.com _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://smtp.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
