My 2.1R system is suffering from frequent virtual terminal, console and X freezes. (about every half hour) I dont think the whole system is freezing, as I often still see td/rd activity on the modem indicating that an ftp or something is still going on over the ppp link. I only have one computer, so I cant try to telnet in to see if anything is happening. The only way I have discoved of escaping from this is to hit the "reset" button. This is a new problem - the system has been very well behaved for about five months now. I cant think of anything I have changed that could be causing something like this. Nothing obvious shows up in the logs (not that I really know where to look). The system is a 486DX2-66 noname with AMI BIOS, Soundblaster-16 + Creative 2XCDROM, 2 x IDE conner 420MB hard disks, 12MB Ram, 1MB Trident SVGA, mouse systems mouse. It is running stock 2.1R everything, and has Linux emulation compiled in. In which logs should I look, what should I look for, and is there some sort of extended logging I should turn on to try and sort this out ? Thanks Anthony Hill ahill@connect.com.au
