Strange system lockups.
I am having some weird system lockup problems. My computer goes in to heavy
HD caching every Sunday evening or Monday morning and locks up, I cannot move
the mouse in X nor can I switch to any other virtual terminals.
I checked all the cron jobs in cron.daily, cron.weekly and cron.monthly and
none of them take more than 3 seconds to run. My /etc/crontab only has
anacron running. I checked my syslog, it doesn't report anything happening at
this time. I am the only user on my system.
I have never had this problem before installing Debian (Woody) on my
computer, my previouse Windows and RedHat installations ran without a
problem. I usually run my computer 24/7, with reboots and shutdowns every now
and then, and this problem has been coming up for several weeks and always on
Sunday evening or Monday morning.
If can help me shed some light on this problem, I would much appreciate the
help.
