It's a hard lock up, I can't free them of it and I have no idea > what causes it. Is anyone else seeing this, too? Seth, I have. I have a toshiba 1135-S155 laptop running rawhide. I've noticed that several times as I am composing an email in evolution or once in openoffice, the system will freeze. The disk light is solid. If I am quick, I can get to a virtual terminal as X is locked. The top process is kswapd0. It happens randomly. I have not been able to determine if this happens only when RAM is getting full, or if VM is getting full. I can get it to stop ONLY when I am in the vertual term and I wait for kswapd0 to stop. Then I can go back to X and work. I have no idea what the underlying problem is. I first thought it was OO and fonts because the problem went away when I changed all of the fonts in teh document to be the same. But then it has happened in evolution, so I do not know any more. -- Brian Millett Enterprise Consulting Group "Shifts in paradigms (314) 205-9030 often cause nose bleeds." bpmATec-groupDOTcom Greg Glenn
