hello *
it happens to me regularly that the x server dies without any obvious reason. funny thing is, it takes the virtual text consoles with it, which is why i'm posting here.
i end up in kdm and i can restart x alright, but when i switch vc's, all i see is a frozen image of the x screen. i can switch back to x, and it runs.
all tasks i started on the vc's before keep running, the mingettys are there, the bashes are there, and i can even blind-type commands that will run correctly. only the display is messed up. a blind-typed "reset" has no effect.
any clues ? i'm using x version 4.2.0 with a voodoo3 card (dri and agp enabled). this is an smp box with 2 p3/600 katmai. might this be not a kernel issue, but an x11 problem ?
best wishes,
jörn
