I've been experiencing weird hangs from time to time. This usually occurs when the cpu (K6/II 300 with 64M) is running flat out and swaping is active, like when I run a set of kde compiles (many hours) and continue to use the box for email and browsing. At first I thought Opera might be the culprit, but I've seen the problem occur without opera.
My environment 2.4.4.9+ kernel, X 4.1.0, Savage video card, XFCE, sylpheed, nothing bleeding edge with compiler or glibc. Swap file is active, and I have more than 2X physical memory. The symptoms are: When browsing at high system loads, the mouse and keyboard stop responding. Reboot required. Thanks goodness I use resierfs. FYI, I have run the memtest86 tests, and my memory (well my PC's memory, my own is another story) appears to be ok. Any clues? -- Collins Richey Denver Area gentoo_rc6 xfce+sylpheed _______________________________________________ http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives, Subscribe, Unsubscribe, Digest, Etc ->http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
