Hi.
I have a very stange problem with xf 4.0.x. Now and then X seems to crash in
some strange way. The screen stops updating, the keyboard doesn't work, the
only thing I can do is to hit the power-button and reboot.
This has happend with all versions of xf 4.0.x, under both redhat 6.2/7.0,
Joel, I have just recently been getting the same problem. First I thought it
was my processors, then I thought it was XF4, then I thought it was
enlightenment. It just locks my screen with everything frozen except the mouse,
which moves around fine. Maybe this isn't a hardware problem like I
I forgot to mention that in my post that I can move the mouse around just like
you say. I have also thougth of it being a hardware-problem. Just out of
curiosity, what gfx-card do you have? I have a 3dfx voodoo3 2000 agp, maybe
there is some problem with the tdfx-driver.

I have been using the 3DFX Voodoo 3 3000 AGP for a long time without problems.
This new problem just started happening to me on Saturday.
Oh, and I'm running cvs enlightenment on unstable Debian.

Joel, which kernel are you using? I am currently using 2.2.18pre21 for the DRI
for the tdfx module. I was actually using this kernel for 2 weeks before it
started to freeze on me, so I assume it's not the kernel's fault. I'm already
leaning towards X4 on this one. Something must be wrong with
Enlightenment just segfaulted on me, and this is about 30 minutes after the
latest crash which just happened. I am going to switch over to gnome for a few
days and see if I can get it to crash.

I have a very stange problem with xf 4.0.x.
from the description of the problem I am not sure if this is related
but it might be so here it goes:
I have the same card (3dfx voodoo 3, PCI) and the X server used to
crash quite often when I moved around large windows (whole windows where
moved, not just frames, opaque moving). Daryll said
I'm currently using 2.2.18, no dri, no tdfx-module, no agpgart. I have tested
with all of those included to, but that doesn't make any difference. X has
freezed much more often latley (since a few days ago) for me, so there might be
something with the latest builds that is causing it.

I switched to gnome this afternoon (which I can't stand because the
window-focusing isn't as cool as E) and I haven't frozen yet. I sure hope E is
screwed up and not X.

It probably has something to do with the fact that
For me the windowmanager doesn't mather, e, wm, fvwm2, gnome/sawfish all of
them crashes. WindowMaker is the worst.
