Hmm, I guess the constant SIGALRMs might prevent the lockup detection from kicking in... Maybe you can try starting the X server with -dumbSched to see if that gets things along any further, but in the end there's probably no way around figuring out what causes the lockup and fixing that anyway. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://www.vmware.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
