[expert] GUI Crashing all the time in 9.0

[.]

Has anyone else had a problem with their machine dropping back from gui to console after a period of uptime? I have a computer that I run at init level 5 and use as my main home PC. However, I also have it running several things out of cron, and performing server type functions like samba and cups. It's an AMD XP 1400 with 512MB of RAM, so I don't feel I'm asking too much from the system.

Periodically, I'll come up to the keyboard and monitor and it will be at a console login prompt. After a series of stopping and starting xfs and dm, and running "init 3" followed by "init 5" seems to get me back to a gui login. Then I can log back in and continue on. The problem is, I have things running out of xterm windows and I keep loosing my work when this happens.

I'm going to make sure I'm patched to the latest rpms, but I thought I'd post to this group to see if anyone else had seen this and/or knew what the problem was.

Thanks,
Cory
