At first, [ ... ] Marc, I can't tell you what's causing it but I've got similar symptoms since the beginnings. Right now I'm running 2.1.0-SNAP-9507?? and it still happens every now and then. The only thing I noticed is that it always happens when I switch screens during disk activity. Also note that during a lockup I'm able to login on a serial line and everything works OK*. It's only the console input which is lost until I reboot the machine. System: noname AMD486/40MHz, 8MB RAM, IDE 420MB hd with on board IDE controller Andras * The only problem is that my wife tolerates only one computer in the living room and I'm lazy to draw a serial cable between the living room and an old XT in the attic, so I had to revert to job control in my primary shell in vt0 in order to avoid the lockups. ;-)
