Re: [Flightgear-devel] FlightGear freezes (float point interrupt)
I believe I have fixed my freezing problem by removing Xorg and moving back to XFree. Ampere ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

Alternatively, does FG freeze when you start it without all the options above?

Andy I think I reproduced it by increasing CPU load (ie. loading other applications). As for memtest86, I do not know how to use the program.

This sounds like a heat problem. Check your CPU temperature right after the crash. How hot is it? AMD (that's what I'm using) specs say they can go up to 85 or 90 degrees C (depends on the model), but I ran into trouble at about 70-75 degrees. (Don't laugh, I had mounted my heatsink the wrong way around by mistake, there was almost no thermal paste between the cpu core and the heatsink. That had never happened to me before, and I have built quite a lot of systems in the past ten years.) As for memtest86, I do not know how to use the program. Download the iso image, burn it to a cd, boot from it and let it run all tests (may take a while). --Ivo ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
