Hi,
A couple of things happened today that make me write to the list:
I was running a simulation (a C program) and was logged onto X with a
couple of xterms open, and all of a sudden the machine froze. I could not
toggle CAPS/Numlock, could not telnet into the machine, or ping it. It
just froze. I had to power down the machine. After restarting, things
looked normal, and I started X again and had the simulation running. I
wanted to leave, so I started xlock and after a couple of mins, the
XServer shut down reporting a SIGNAL 11.
What does this mean? I lost a whole day's work because of this, and
would really appreciate some input on how I can avoid such occurences again.
I run RH6.1, kernel 2.2.12-20 on an AMD k6/2.
Thanks,
-Karthik.
