I have a problem, which may be related.
Usually it is not restart, but the keyboard and mouse freeze in X-Window
and I have to hit the Big Red Button.
More rarely, the X-Window subsystem spontaneously restarts.
My system is (uname -a):
Linux c2 2.6.26-2-686 #1 SMP Sun Jun 21 04:57:38 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
It is tainted by nvidia proprietary drivers.
Usually the system gets stuck when I do something (such as opening a new
page) with the browser (Iceweasel 3.0.6).
Like Shimon, I would appreciate advice which log files to inspect.
