Thanks for your suggestion. Don't know if my system crash had the same
reason then posted in "Gnome Freeze". I couldn't do nothing after this
crash. No "Ctrl-Alt-F2" or something like that. And the crash didn't
came while starting Gnome. But it came first time after enabeling some 
sound features. Now i turned off all gnome sounds. Will ask again if 
there comes more system crashes.

Bye,

Timo

I use woody and haven't had any crash yet. It is pretty stable.
I guess that is a missconfiguration of your kernel... Maybe apm or acpi...
or any module with invalid irqs, dmas etc.

In the worst case, this can also be some memory problems (phisical).

Search the archive for a thread "Gnome freezes". A couple of us had
problems of sawfish hanging due to sound effects being turned on for
window open/close events. I turned off gnome sounds _and_ sawfish sounds
and now I'm OK. My i810 sound in the laptop either isn't configured
properly or the sound driver has problems.

Woody hangs sometimes! Why?

2001-09-11 Thread Timeboy

Dear Woody users!

Do you had seen this too? Sometimes there cames a green line from the left
till the right side on top of the screen while working with Gnome and the
system hangs absolute. Then a reboot is needed.

This system crash not happens by using a determined application. At first 
time it happens while starting xmms. Today by sending a mail with balsa. 
And yesterday by opening a gnome-terminal. So i can say, whenever any new 
process is starting, the system could begin to crash.

I looked into some log files but couldn't find anything. Is this a bug
cause woody isn't stable yet?

Which log files could have informations about this system crash?

Timo
