Any chance you have a GL driver issue? Was your driver updated recently?
Can you *still* run 3.6.2 without problems?

Hi Paul,
Thanks for your hint, but I do have enough disk space (~10 GB). I’ve
already tried to look in /var/log/ but didn’t really find anything
suspicious.
The strange thing is that it never happened with 3.6.2 or 3.6.1. The
problem started to appear as of 3.7 (which I compiled from source) and
remains also for 3.8 RC2 too

A thought - do you have enough disk space? I am using 3.8 RC1/2 on
Centos 5.5 with no issues. However I have noticed that if you run out
of disk space, you get no warning and the session just crashes. Maybe
ParaView is generating some file (swap?) that pushes your system to
the limit of disk.
I am not sure how to debug ParaView (yet) so I don't know if there is
anything in the /var/log directory to look for.

Dear all,
I have the following problem with Paraview 3.8 RC2. Actually the
problem already appeared with the version 3.7 which I built from
source. However, as it was a development version, I thought there
might be still some bugs. But the 3.8 RC2 which I’ve installed just
today behaves the same.
So the problem is the following: After a few minutes (can really reach
from ~30 seconds to ~20 minutes) of working with Paraview suddenly my
whole Linux session restarts and I have to login again. Of course by
this I lose all the opened applications (not just Paraview), which is
pretty bad.
There’s no real way, how to exactly reproduce the problem. I mean the
time when the crash occurs seems more or less random. But after max
~30 mins of working with Paraview, you can be almost sure it crashes.
The only thing I can say is, that if I just leave Paraview minimized
and do something else, the crash doesn’t occur. Thus it really happens
only if you actively do something in Paraview.
I’m using CentOS 5.5.
Are there any logs or error messages you could help to analyze the
situation more? I’m not sure where I could find something relevant.
Regards
Josef
