This kind of lockup is usually an error in the video driver, forgetting to drop a software lock after some operation and then on the next operation waiting endlessly for the lock to be dropped. Or it gave the video chip a wrong command that never ends, while holding a software lock. In this latter case restarting X probably won't help, as the video chip is deaf. > 2) I have no clue how to find out what's causing the lockup. > I'd love to, because I usually lose a bunch of work in the crash. Check your video driver and see if there's a newer version available. Benno -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
