Pine? Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: hackers-owner@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk I had a strange kernel panic today... the boss was just reading her mail in Pine 3.91 in an xterm when the machine simply locked up and rebooted itself. Pine has worked flawlessly on all other machines and on her particular one up until the panic, so I'm lead to believe it was caused by a hardware problem. The case on that computer was opened up today to install a new DX4 chip, but the motherboard can't take one, so no changes were made. It is still running its original DX2/66 CPU. I didn't see any obvious signs of damage or loose bits on the motherboard, but I swapped her machine for one of our other DX4/100's in the meantime. The DX2/66 hasn't behaved strangely since then. Any ideas? Or should I chalk this one up to a stray cosmic ray?
