Quite often when watching video on youtube the box freeze (no > panic). I've previously reported this to freebsd-emul and probably freebsd-stable, but nobody has been able to consistently create the issue so far. At one point it was happening often enough and I was getting so tired of fscking I moved my drive to mostly ZFS so I could boot up in a reasonable amount of time. Anyway, my observations are: - It happens on 8.2 (not bothered trying -stable) - It happens on various nvidia driver versions - I can't prove it's truly linuxulator related - When trying to catch a "panic" by telling it to run a video on the X server and watching the console on vt1, it doesn't crash. It's weird -- it just *doesn't* crash if I'm not staring at the vt that runs the X server. Weird. Regards, Mark
