Incoming from Lian Liming:
I am using debian ustable with kde 3.3. I wonder why my kde is so
weak. It oftern crashes.
I am not curious to know the reasons why my kde often crashes. I
just want to know when meeting such problems, how can i analyze the
problem. I am not familiar with the log system on Linux. When system
crashed, there should be some records on some log files. So which files
First off, it's not a system crash if it's just kde & X Window
crashing. If the system's not rebooting and remounting filesystems,
it's just one or two large apps (X, kdm, kde, ...) that are dying.
Most system logs are in /var/log. In your $HOME directory, you may
also find ~/.xsession-errors
It might be helpful if you told us what your box is. How much RAM,
disk, & etc. A friend of mine was suffering mysterious crashes and
lockups until we gave up on the internal Winmodem. Now, it's fine.
Lots of things can cause hiccups like this.
