Thanks to all that have replied.. I have tried to telnet in, but unfortunately even though seti etc is still running, the "system" is dead - I can't even ping my machine.. I have also offloaded squid and wwwrun which seemed to be hogging a fair amount of ram - I have "niced" seti as this was quite intensive but it still does it (occassionally) So.. from a ram point of view, this is free total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 59690 56512 3168 33540 1980 19112 -/+ buffers/cache 35420 24260 Swap: 128516 3028 125488 Considering that Seti and the Tv are currently running, the swap use seems low ?

it sounds like your ram is being over-used. Try killing some processes and see if that helps at all

Or, if you're on a network, try to telnet (rlogin, ssh, ...) into your machine, and see what's going on.
