Knowing what type of program or programs is open each time wouldn't hurt. Knowing specifically which ones... ok, yeah, I know... the list could become seemingly endless. My thought process is that maybe certain ones or combinations of certain genres/families are calling something up that causes this. Knowing any personal tweaks done at installation wouldn't hurt, either.. Or knowing things like what I just did LITERALLY ten minutes ago... 2 different versions of the same browser. One's installed via apt/apt-get... the other manually installed by extracting to /tmp then certain files were renamed and/or their textual content altered in an ATTEMPT to prevent conflict before copying over to /usr/*. Total smooth move that's destined to go quite swimmingly. Am contemplating opening both at the same time to get today's party started off with just the right bang-fizzle.. *cues downward spiraling slide whistle stinger* > Which window manager / desktop environment?
