Hmm, then it's not likely a configuration issue. Would be great if you could try with the DRM from DRI CVS, see http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building#head-59338b545aa94fe7570b689a9f9f850f53f732ca http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building#head-d3dcc7d83ae38d3b36f7f23ddcd4f5268396b2b4 > BTW: Is it possible to ssh into such a crashed system/machine and shut > it down cleanly instead of stupidly pressing the power button I was > doing so far after these crashes? Depends how hard the crash is. Would be interesting to know at any rate. Even if it doesn't work, ctrl-option-power (IIRC, and don't want to verify right now ;) might reset the machine slightly more gracefully. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://tungstengraphics.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer
