I wonder if someone might suggest a way of dealing with this: Every time I visit one particular website's home page, I get a complete freeze and the loss of keyboard and mouse necessitating a reboot. The browser status bar starts with a "transferring data from ..." and then the whole thing freezes a second later. This happens under both kde 3.2.2 and gnome 2.2, and with firefox, galeon and konqueror - same result for all. It's the only website I've encountered that causes this. So I'm guessing a crash of the xserver? SuSE 9.0 here running XFree86-4.3.0.1-46 and an Nvidia card. Which particular logs if any should I get checking, and can I set up a simple test to trap the error and at least get it logged somewhere? The website is a php-based one, and in fact it's the home of one of the more popular "CMS" scripts out there. It's a good script and what I want to do is find out whether the cause of the problem is 100% my setup or something in their php code, in which case I can post a bug report on their forums. TIA :) Fish

http://e107.org But I must emphasize that it will almost certainly work fine for you and the cause is "my setup". I just want to find out what the problem with my setup is. I've tried all the usual stuff like clearing caches and deleting cookies. Other e107 sites using the same version of the script come up fine, but not this one. Maybe it's something in the theme which is more elaborate than most and unique to the site. No idea really. :) Fish
