My hard locks happen when I use kmail to write email. In the middle of the writing a hard lock will often occur. More often than I like ;(. Another cause of my hard locks happen when I scroll with the mouse in Mozilla Firefox. That has changed my habit of using the mouse for scrolling. With page down and up no hard locks occur up to now. I know that my hardware is at the low end (noname Pentium II 400mHz with 378M memory running 10.3 and KDE) but I really like to proof myself that hardware is no big issue with Linux.
I am experimenting according to the "minimum effort principle". For the moment I have disabled graphics hw acceleration in OO as suggested and for few days have not experienced any hard locks. If (and when) they occur I will try out the other suggestions.
Btw, do you have an nvidia graphics card and did you experience these hard locks with an older suse version? Are you running 64-bit?

I am using a Nvidia Geforce 5500 on a 32 bit system. Up to 10.1 I hade no problems with the same hardware. And I had all versions from somewhere version 6.2 :) Will see what the graphics hw acceleration thingy will change. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
