| |
Hi,
Sorry, if I'm not meant to post on this list.
I have been noticing the following bug with kernel 2.6.0-pre8 up to pre10. My XFree-4.3.0 freezes completely on a very irregular base spontaneously or reproducibly if I use "wine" with certain programs.
Since I have no network, I can not try ssh, but the NumLock-key still swithces on/off the LED on the keyboard, after X has frozen.
I have tried to switch preemptible kernel on and off, but it does not make a big difference.
Starting a (freeware) game called "dink smallwood" under wine, crashes XFree reproducibly. Before everything stops, I can see that the shell from which I started wine fills with error messages "signal 0 can not be handled" (to be honest, I forgot the exact message, but it was something like this). Under kernel 2.4.21 everything works (at least X does not crash).
My setup is: SMP-Duron (I know, not officially supported, but under 2.4.21 I have no problems). Asus-board with 768MPX-chipset. Radeon-Card and SuSE-8.2 distro with all SuSE-patches installed and the latest wine from SuSE-package (people/meissner/...).
I hope this helps, if not I can try to answer questions.
Cheers
Klaus
