In my case, I use the same hardware I had when using SuSE 7.3 (upgraded to kernel 2.4.22, KDE 3.1.x, etc so it didn't look like a 7.3 anymore ;)). Martin, I really hope this does not become a thread where everyone dumps their crashes on. Besides, i really think that you missed my point. The only purpose of my

The root cause for instability *is* the brainless drive toward the next number version!!! Instead of adding one feature and 15 bugs and calling it 9.1, i would love to see a full accounting of just the 9.0 bugs first! I bet you would too... yes, it would not be as glamorous as a whole new version, but it would sure work better... it would also scare that known small and limp entity for real instead of just paying lip service to it...

Yesterday I had some crashes copying an URL using the mouse's right-button menu on Konqueror and some others when the screensaver was active (it's already turned off) and some others due to still unknown reasons...
Do we have to wait for SuSE 9.1 to hit the stores/FTP-servers to reach the lost stability we had with older SuSE versions?

I had that problem and it was caused by a specific CD burner. When and only when that cd burner was in the system, it randomly locked up in SuSE 9. When that cd burner was removed, the lockups completely disappeared. Why one CD burner causes lockups in linux and the other doesn't is beyond me. Something just has to be wrong with the one causing the lockups even though it reads and burns fine.

Hi,
something similar happens to my system (SuSE 9.0): it freezes
from time to
time even while idle, so the only possible solution is to press the "Reset"-button... it's quite annoying for a Linux system using
an *stable*
release, I must say...

i guess the more windoze-like our linucses become, the more windoze-like they behave! Here is what i consider a pretty good example: First make sure everything is backed up and all apps are closed. Start your realplayer - i use it to hear news from the old country-, hook up to a station or something. then, for a change, forget about work and world, and click up
a game of
Klondike solitaire. then count the seconds or the minutes
until the hard
lockup. in my a7s333 - 1gb ram - ati rage pro128 it happens every time. sometimes in 10 seconds, sometimes in 10 minutes. suse 8.2 or 9.0 it reminds me of the old saying : Be careful what you wish, you might get it... it is a silly combination of apps and it is not important to me that this gets fixed, however it is amazing to me that something as simple as klondike can bring down a linux setup with 6-7 months uptime on the first
try and then
every single time after that... d.
