Only two reports? I really doubt it (search for older bugs!). At least it worked for me with a more recent kernel whereas it freezed using 2.6.28. > Maybe the common thing is a somewhat slower/older CPU(k7, 686)/machine? > That would somewhat explain the "I see it on SSH, but not on local" report > from > http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=479438#15 . Whenever I use aptitude I have to wait up to 5 minutes (or longer) until it has done it's job but it works. My system is a PIII 800MHz with 256 MB RAM and a *very* slow solid state disk. I also tested aptitude on even slower hardware (FreeRunner and a 400MHz Mips workstation and a 370 MHz Mips workstation). It works well (but slow) on these so I suspect a slow CPU is not related to the problem. > If is of any help, this machine has: > > 0 e...@twix ~/usr/src/perso/aptitude/aptitude-0.4.11.11 $ free -m > total used free shared buffers cached > Mem: 1003 687 315 0 34 252 Wow!!!
