Then after many things get killed and then the computer hangs and only
huge amount of
harddisk activity is "seen" X server gets hang and keyboard and all is
frozen.. then I reboot
and read the systemlog and see all this messages. Someone any clue about
what
is cousing this? It has happend 2 times in about 2 months. During the
last crash there
was running nothing special, netscape, some fts and the usual services.
please cc to me <<adelhier at edv1.boku.ac.at>>, I am not on the list
Thanks
Andres
