Also, in this point as the machine serves as desktop, it would be nice to check if it was just X that deadlocked. I've had similar problems (But not with mon) and i thought that my machine jammed totally when it stopped respondong to *any* keyboard and mouse signals and monitor had lot of garbage pixels .. but i tried to connect the machine from network via ssh or similar and machine seemed to work nicely.. Killed all my processes (owned by my user) and restarted the x and everything was set.. So, if you havent tested it allready, try to connect to your machine from network when the problem arises again and see whats going on. -- Jani Mikkonen <jani dot mikkonen at jippiigroup dot com> ADVOGATE Profile: http://www.advogato.org/person/rasjani Public key available from www.keyserver.net - ProPrivacy!
