Re: interesting fatal crash

  I assume you didn't find anything interesting scheduled by
cron for those times?

  Sometimes screensavers, particular OpenGL screensavers can
cause a server crash when they come on if there's a bug in
the OpenGL driver or GLX.

  Could be related to a power management event (dpms or apm)
causing the crash.

   Other than screen savers and power management, I can't
think of any situation where the server would crash on its
own when nothing special was going on.

   You might check the kernel messages.  A segfault in the
kernel prompted by an app's action can show up as a segfault
in the app.
