X crashing

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Ok, I'm running "Fedora legacy" (RH 9 updates) on my wife's computer, a 450MHz K6 w/ SIS graphics card.

X just crashes every so often. No reason, SIGHUP is all I see, nothing meaningful in /var/log/messages, nor in /var/log/XFree86.0.log, not in ~/.xerrors (where I have it set up to pipe errors, no cores (sudo find / -name \*core\*), NOTHING. I just upgraded X, turned off screensaves. She was just sitting there doing email.

Plenty of space in /, /home, and /var. The only ownership complaint I see is that her account owns /tmp/.ICE-unix instead of root.

  Linux, 2.4.20-30.9 (Fedora Legacy)
  XFree86 4.3.0.2.90.60 (Fedora Legacy)
  mailtool: kmail (original RH 9)
  WM kde, 3.1.12 (original RH 9)

It was doing the same on X 4.3.0.0.90.55.

Clues?

Note: I'm not planning on going to a 2.6 kernel - these are single-processor machines, and I do *NOT* want anything near bleeding edge, anyway: stability and speed on the existing hardware is paramount.

So how do you like the coup d'etat so far?
And more importantly, what are you planning to do about it?
