I have the X.org.0.old log from a crash about an hour ago, which is probably due to me using Adobe connect for a course I am taking.
The panel froze, then the programs began to fail one at a time.
What's the standard way of attaching the log to the mailing list?

Yes. When it froze up, that's the first thing I tried. Sometimes if I am lucky, I get to switch to the other tty, otherwise it just freezes in place.
Or in the case when video is playing, the scene gets stuck in a loop and I am unable to get the desktop back, even after killing the process in tty. Getting to the other terminals is only useful for a reboot, without having to reach for the reboot button.
Luckily with an SSD, I am not as concerned with physical damage to the hard drive as I would with a normal spinning disk.
Is there a way to log these events so I can give useful debugging information? Most likely Xorg crashes, not the kernel, guessing from your description. So /var/log/Xorg.log should be helpful (.0.old if you reboot first).
regards,
Post the log to an accessable location where it can be seen. Can be google or pastebook or susepaste or .... Or display it on your own web site/page/... -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
