No, no cron jobs. Also, the last time it crashed, the screensavers were
disabled. I see kapmd daemon running, which refuses to be killed. The
only kernel messages around crash:
Jul 8 01:00:04 kashmir gconfd (mrathor-4250): Received signal 1,
shutting down cleanly
Jul 8 01:00:04 kashmir gconfd (mrathor-4250): Exiting
Jul 8 01:00:04 kashmir kernel: device eth0 left promiscuous mode
Jul 8 01:00:04 kashmir kernel: bridge-eth0: disabled promiscuous mode
I think this might be after X decided to bail.
Thanks,

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.

Hi,
I've this annoying problem of X crashing with the usual signall 11,
but the intersting thing is it always happens at either 1AM or 1PM!!
It's crashed 4 times in the last 2 weeks. I've checked all the cron tab
files. Any ideas?
BTW, this on : RHEL 2.4.21-27.EL i686 RELEASE: 7.4 3AS
Thanks
Mukesh
