Hi,

My factory beta 5.2 freezes completely, randomly. I assume it is the 
kernel. There is nothing in logs.

I opened a bugzilla, but they ask for more info. I have none, they don't 
say what I can do.

   Beagle was running, and main partition is reiser, but they haven't
   commented on this possibility; 11.0 crashed because of this when it was
   released - is this problem still around?


How can I obtain more info?

Forget about the typical memory, disk, whatever hardware issues: the 
system is solid under 11.0, it is 11.1 which locks, thus it is a software 
issue of 11.1, supossedly the kernel (disk and network lights stopped, 
key-cap led stuck).

They pointed me to "http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs/Kernel";, but there is 
nothing there I can use, AFAIK.

I assume I could connect the machine via serial port to another, and make 
kernel log everything there. But how?


I'm currently re-compiling the kernel, to enable 
"CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP=y", but this will only print to the screen, and 
which screen? As X will be locked, there is no way I can look anywhere 
else but the place where I was when it locked...
