Yesterday X decided to freeze on me - the display froze, and the keyboard
did not respond. It seemes to be a probelm with my X server (XFcom_i740),
since a rectangle on the screen was misplaced as it froze.
Anyway - I logged in from another station, and saw that X was taking 90%
cpu time . I tried killing X. X was killed, but the console remained
frozen (and the display has not changed).
The only thing I have managed t change was that when I ran startx again
(from the remote session) - it cleared my screen, but nothing more.
Anyway - my question is: Is there any way of recovering from such a thing
other than reboot?
BTW: some details about the problem itself:
It happened twice, not long after I upgraded licq 0.70f->0.71 with
qt-gui 0.67 (for which I also installed qt 2.0). It froze while I was
working on licq, so I guess this is what triggered it.
Anyway - I have an Intel express 3D w/4MB ram. I used
XFCom-i740-glibc-1.1.0 , working at 16bpp.
BTW(2): Anyone managed to use hebrew fonts on licq with qt2 ?
Any idea if I need a special unicode font or something? I tried to use
existing iso-8859-8 fonts, but they show hebrew chars as english chars.
