I've had x lockups before in the past. Only thing that has solved it was upgrading X to the latest and having a driver fixup fix the bug. I could ssh in from another box and kill -9 the X process. Are you running the latest version of X? www.free86.org On Sun, 27 Jul 2003, Baris Hasdemir wrote:

I get X lockups, too. But when it happens, nothing works. No mouse, no keys, and I don't think I get increased cpu load. Only pressing the reset button works. I'm pretty sure it's due to a flaky power supply that puts out low voltages sometimes, and has on occasion rebooted itself for no apparent reason. I'll know for sure in about a week, when the new one arrives.
let me tell some more about the frozen state. when this strange thing happens I absolutely can move the mouse pointer. but nothing reacts when moved over, or clicked on.
more, when connected from another machine thorugh ssh, even if I kill the application shown on the screen, although the application is killed. (even not in Z state) it is still shown on screen as if nothing has happened. it is more like a screenshot taken before the freeze.
it seems like driver problem? would you think so?
thanks, baris
