Hi,
I've been using LTSP for a few months now, and it's been a great setup.
However, since day one, every few hours my workstation will lock up
solid. The server is unaffected. Any number or kinds of applications
can be running when the crash occurs. One time the system locked up
when only the screensaver was running.
I'm using RedHat Linux 7.2. The workstation is a Pentium 75 with 64 MB
RAM, and the server is a dual-Pentium II 400 with 256 MB RAM. The two
systems are connected via a 100 Mbps network. There is only one
workstation.
Every time a crash occurs, the error "gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal
X error" shows up in /var/log/messages. Here's a copy of the messages
from the last 2 crashes I've experienced, along with the 10 entries
previous to the error in case they're helpful:
("xtrm" is the name of the workstation, "XJDAU" is the server)

Any suggestions? Also, while I'm here, what do the "MARK" entries mean?
