Even the mouse doesn't move and keyboard input is discarded. The System did never crash but it renders the Desktop unusable. While the freezes occur the Xorg process uses 100% CPU (on one core). The occurrence of the freezes is entirely random for me. There are days the System runs flawless and other days when it is unusable. Sometimes restarting X and reloading the kernel driver helps. I was experiencing these freezes from the first moment i booted the system (with nouveau driver) and as well using the nvidia driver. They occur using KDE or GNOME (did not test other yet). I'm typing this using the nv driver which seems to fix the problem (as these freezes are entirely random i might be waiting days to see them here as well). I updated to the new kernel in /update/11.3-test which should fix bug #625339. It did not fix my problem. Anyway using kernel-2.6.35 solves the problem. I ran the system for several days and everything worked fine (except for my TV card but that's another issue). Couldn't test 2.6.36 because the nvidia driver won't compile on it. (nv or nouveau run fine i guess ... didn't test that long) I did not find any relating errors in the log files. I'll attach the output of lspci... I'll provide a Xorg.log and dmesg output later as I'm now using nv driver which is not affected... Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just boot the System with X11 Desktop 2. Login in 3. Actual Results: Random system freezes for 1-5sec Expected Results: No freezes My System: NVIDIA GeForce GT240 (using 9500gt: same problem) MSI K9N SLI V2 ( nForce 570LT SLI Chipset ) Dual Monitor configuration AMD Athlon X2 5200+ 4GB of RAM OCZ Agility 2E SSD -- 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.
