Hi, when burning a DVD today, our new Debian workstation suddenly froze. I could move the mouse cursor, but the system did not respond to any keypresses (even magic sysrq). I could not ssh to the box and it did not even respond to ping.
With no other options, I powered it down and back up again, and it come up nicely. None of the logfiles show nothing interesting, at some point the logging just stops. How can I investigate this further? I already burned and erased a DVD-RW dozens of times in a loop without a problem. Currently I'm running memtest86. I suspect some kind of hardware problem, because our other Debian workstations have never done this kind of thing. The machine is a Dell Precision 690 with 2 dual-core Xeon processors, 4 GiB of memory and two SAS hard drives, running Debian Lenny. thanks, Jussi -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/totally-crashed-workstation-tp20915906p20915906.html Sent from the Debian User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
