I have now finally once seen it happen while I was watching, again on 2.6.21-rc5. The X display was idle and blanked because I hadn't touched the keyboard and mouse in a while (it seems to happen only in that state) but I had "top" running in an ssh session from another machine so I could see what the machine was doing. Just before the KDE crash, an "online_update" process appeared. The KDE processes vanished from "top" more or less together with that process. Before, the system had been idle except for the screensaver. "online_update" was most probably started by SuSE's "susewatcher" applet, and according to its log found some new updates, so perhaps it did try to emit a sound as Rafael suspects. (The machine doesn't have speakers connected, so I can't tell.) > We also have another report of crashes under KDE: > > Subject : crashes in KDE > References : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8157 > Submitter : Oliver Pinter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Could be the same. The report is not detailed enough to say. Oliver provokes his crash with amarok which would fit in with the sound hypothesis. > We also have one bug kwin ran into that got fixed after -rc5: > > Subject : kwin dies silently [...] > Fixed-By : Eric W.

Thanks, Tilman -- Tilman Schmidt E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bonn, Germany In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
