I'm running SuSE 11.0
Any suggestions anybody?
Thanks Phil
Phil,
Memory is 100% good right? No chance of ram errors? Also, if it is a 64-bit box, you should install mcelog to eliminate any other hardware possibilities. (there is always the 4.2 uncertainty that is a possibility) It's not exactly a tried and proven desktop at this stage of the game.
If you're looking for complete stability you shouldn't be using 4.2
Don't flame me, I'm all for 4.x, it's wonderful, but I'm still using and recommending 3.5 for stability.
Also, Phil, are use using an nVidia or AIT graphics card? If so are you suing the free drivers/Xorg modules or are you using the appropriate commercial drivers?
JW I'm using ATI with commercial drivers. I know KDE4.2 is still relatively unstable, but I have always run latest and most risky - I have just never experienced complete freeze of my SuSE systems before. Seg faults, application freeze etc, but complete freeze nah..
