/var/log/messages contains:
Aug 12 10:53:13 armdevnux0 kdm[2510]: X server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly
Isn't that what you consider a crash? ;)
Sure, but I can't see the crash in any logfile you attached. Looks like you're using Xgl. Please verify that you attach /var/log/Xorg.93.log.old right after the crash happened.
What I experience when I try to start kdiff3 is: The screen goes black and after a few seconds I'm back on the login screen... Most of the time...
Yes, when the Xserver dies kdm starts a new one. This is what you're seing.
I've also experienced that after the screen goes black, I'll return to the shell. (Alt-F7 just shows a black screen with a blinking cursor in the upper left corner, after that happens).
This happens only if the Xserver dies 3 times in a short time period to make sure the system is still accessible via the linux console. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
