Good day to all. We have a 4.1.1-STABLE system (rebuilt ten days ago) as our web-server and X workstation. In recent 12 days we had four total hangs. Consoles and network lock till cold reboot. Three of four times I was running X and just surfing. Then mouse freezes and ka-boom happens. No pings, no keyboard blinkenlights, nothing. This kinda bothers me and I just wanted to ask about the ways to diagnose and then shoot the trouble. Are there any ways to get a crash dump or whatever in this situation? Serial console? Syslog to a remote host? I need advice, badly. It's a PIII 600 box with a 128 of SDRAM and 76Gb on four hdds. It has an Acorp motherboard with Intel815 chipset. We've plugged in an old S3 video card to get X running (XFree86 doesn't support i815 built-in videocontroller on a FreeBSD). -- Alex Kapranoff, +7(0832)791845 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
