I have to hold down the power button to force a shutdown. Is that not intercepted to display a logout/shutdown/restart dialogue box? (I always set things up so that that happens when in X.) Anyway, that the computer is hung makes it not a xine bug but some combination of X driver bug and kernel bug. You will have to reassign this accordingly and bump the severity.

One of these will help you to get log info: http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/serial-console.txt http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/netconsole.txt > This is an HP DV9000Z laptop, with amd CPU and nvidia graphics.

Reduced to important because it's not a xine problem. (I was tempted to just close it on seeing "nvidia". Consider yourself lucky.) [snip] -- | Darren Salt | linux at youmustbejoking | nr.
