Hi Steve,

...

It looks as though the problem with X spontaneously terminating has come [snip]

I am experiencing the same symptoms. What graphics controller do you have, and what X server are you using ?

I am using XFree86 4.0.2 on a Diamond Viper 770 ( TNT2 ), nv driver with no 3d

With the nvidia and 3d enabled, it's much worse, but then I only start it in that mode for a game of Quake...

Such things used to happen a few years ago, but I've been lucky since then, till recently.

One thing I noticed in 7.0 which seems related is that dragging the window of a remote client app would sometimes result in momentary freezes. In these cases the mouse cursor would track the mouse but the window would get left behind, then the whole screen would freeze for a moment and then everything would catch up. What had been happening was that the same events would take place, but rather than catching up, X would restart. I found I was more or less able to reproduce the problem by opening a few windows and playing with them by dragging them around, re-layering them, and then clicking the desktop icon. This is extremely hard to isolate, and it's something that I would rather not spend time working on. If someone could come up with some deterministic test, I'd be happy to try them to see if I could reproduce the problem. Steve

To add to the saga, I had added (dragged and dropped) the 'file manager (super user mode)' icon into the kicker. It sat there nicely functioning as expected until I tried to move it to the left in the kicker. I dragged it over to sit with my other icons. When I let it go, my X restarted. When I came back into X, I had two icons, one where I had dropped it, and one in the original location in the kicker. I would assume the attempt to remove the original icon was the call that caused X to restart. I suspect QT. Just a hunch. Steve
