Anybody with Dell Inspiron 6400 + OpenSUSE 10.2 experience.
My default installation is causing lots of trouble. Frequent boot time
hang (Primarily at "activating device mapper ...")
and high frequency FireFox crashes (that's where I spend most of my
time, so really "high frequency", definitely not usual for a stable
release). Mostly FireFox stops responding and I need to kill it.
How're your temperatures? I don't have a Dell Inspiron, but I do have a
Toshiba laptop in which I increased the RAM from the original 512 MB to
2 GB. I don't know if it's because of the increased memory or because
it's a couple of years old and probably dusty inside, but now it often
overheats.
The symptom in Linux is that everything becomes unresponsive except the
mouse. However, I'm pretty sure what the problem is, because when the
machine is booted to Windows XP and this happens, it simply shuts down.
It appears to be two different responses to the same situation, and the
Linux response seems very much like what you're describing.
