Greetings list members, Recently, I have been having problems with my system, evolution and opera 7.11. It has caused me to recycle the machine several times causing corrupted files that couldn't be repaired by me. So, I saved my home directory and reinstalled the system according to a fellow list member's post I set up all my partitions as Reiserfs except for the /boot that I made ext3. Originally, when I upgraded to 9.1 I wasn't paying proper attention to the install and before I knew it.. well you get the picture, not what I wanted.
This problem still occurs after the system reinstall and occurs when I click on a link in opera and the machine locks up just as opera tries to load the new page or in evolution when a strange font appears in an email. I tried the system request key combos and got it to reboot once in this fashion, but still didn't properly save data to disk. I just had to do it again a couple of days ago and it corrupted /dev/hda16 which is my /boot partition leaving 2.6% of the files/space fragmented. I read some posts on the opera mailing list about 7.11 locking up on the vendana font and another locking with nvidia video cards. I am seeking comments about my system locking up and why the system request key combo isn't working for me. I am using: evolution 1.4.4 opera 7.11 build 406 qt library 3.1.2 My video card is an AGP nVidia Riva TNT Model 64 generic (I forget the the name of the vendor) Tia, Terry -- Terence Golightly [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mandrake 9.1 kernel 2.4.21-0.13 Always a Newbie
