-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Thanks Peter, Unfortunately the next message is: syslogd 1.5.0#1ubuntu1: restart. The previous message is just the DHCP renewal:
Sep 26 11:54:31 Heracles NetworkManager: <info> DHCP daemon state is now 3 (renew) for interface eth0 Sep 26 11:54:31 Heracles dhclient: bound to 192.168.1.101 -- renewal in 1420 seconds. So no clues there. The program that I started just before the crash was: Crack Attack.
