hi all since late suse 9.1 and now on suse 9.2 i have repeated apps freeze up for apps like Mozilla, firefox and thunderbird mail editor ( every session !! ) to lesser degree evolution mail editor on my Acer TravelMate 6003LCi always current YOU update the problem started about 6-8 weeks ago and was NEVER encountered on suse early 9.0 or any other version before one more x-server problem - may be same cause ? new USB mouse or other USB hardware such as my wacom tablet intuos2 if i connect new a.m. hardware the pop up appears "new hardware discovered" do you want to configure ... when i click YES -- i get an instant X-server crash each time for both a.m. HW since it never occurred before ... could it be that it is caused by the new suse used xorg instead of the previous xfree86 ? what about changing from xorg back to xfree86 ?? any experience and if YES which packages need to be exchanged ? Google search so far has no results the problem with apps freeze up occurs permanently - MANY times a day sometimes after a few URLs of browsing after minutes soemtimes it takes as much as 10 or more minutes - again and again sometimes even without activity - just after a break of several minutes the problem with email editor freeze up occurs almost ever email - after a few lines or any time later during writing mails any help welcome Christmas greetings to all hans -- Cyberspace Ashram http://www.kriyayoga.com
