Check cooling. I think it has to be something else.. this is the only core dump in the syslog and the server is temperature monitored. temperatures were all fine. I think if there were temperature problems the monitor would have logged it and there would be other symptoms. I am doing a portupgrade right now in advance of upgrading from Freebsd 5.3 to 5.4 . The upgrade will include kdelibs and wondering if the new version will fix it. Any more ideas? david -- 40 yrs navigating and computing in blue waters.
