I can't run the Gnome that comes w/ RH 8 for more than 12 hours without a crash.
Usually the entire box freezes up- and I mean everything. This box is a NAT router to my other boxes- they lose internet service and can't even ping the Red Hat box. Occasionally it just crashes X11 and dumps me into console (I startx from run level 3 - I don't use gui login) I switched to KDE and the box was up no crashes for well over a week. Switched back to Gnome and it started its crashing again. Usually it crashes during XScreensaver but it has while browsing or using NEdit as well, so it's not an XScreensaver problem (I haven't tried using XScreensaver in KDE - perhaps I will just to verify) Anyone know what is going on? Here is the info from /proc/cpuinfo : processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 6 model : 2 model name : AMD Athlon(tm) Processor stepping : 2 cpu MHz : 906.313 cache size : 512 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr syscall mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow bogomips : 1792.32 I think I'm using an Asus motherboard- (that may be another box) - I'll find out if it matters. As far as PCI cards- I have two 10/100 nics that I believe use the tulip driver and a US Robotics hardware PCI modem (which I don't currently use) As far as AGP card - it's a VooDoo 3 KDE works fine- it never crashes in KDE. Ever. This same box also worked fine with gnome in Red Hat 7.1 Thanks for any suggestions. Oh- yes, I'm up2date on all patches. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
