Hi again, This time the crash happened right after starting openoffice writer; the system had been running for a couple of days. But I cannot confirm that this is repeatable, though the crash seems to occure while I interact with the GUI.
I logged inn via ssh and executed: $ su # gdb -p $(pidof X) GNU gdb 6.7.1-debian Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Attaching to process 30360 /build/buildd/gdb-6.7.1/gdb/linux-nat.c:979: internal-error: linux_nat_attach: Assertion `pid == GET_PID (inferior_ptid) && WIFSTOPPED (status) && WSTOPSIG (status) == SIGSTOP' failed. A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. Quit this debugging session? (y or n) (I've got this error message before - in connection with this X bug.) It took quite a while for this error-message from gdb to appear: I first waited to see if gdb made some output automatically, then hit ctrl-c, and after quite some time this output came. Since I filed this bug report I have done the following upgrades: cpp-4.2 4.2.3-1 -> 4.2.3-2 g++-4.2 4.2.3-1 -> 4.2.3-2 gcc-4.2 4.2.3-1 -> 4.2.3-2 gcc-4.2-base 4.2.3-1 -> 4.2.3-2 gcc-4.3-base 4.3-20080202-1 -> 4.3.0~rc2-1 lib64gcc1 1:4.3-20080202-1 -> 1:4.3.0~rc2-1 libffi4 4.3-20080202-1 -> 4.3.0~rc2-1 libgcc1 1:4.3-20080202-1 -> 1:4.3.0~rc2-1 libgomp1 4.3-20080202-1 -> 4.3.0~rc2-1 libmudflap0 4.3-20080202-1 -> 4.3.0~rc2-1 libstdc++6 4.3-20080202-1 -> 4.3.0~rc2-1 libstdc++6-4.2-dev 4.2.3-1 -> 4.2.3-2 libc6 2.7-6 -> 2.7-9 libc6-amd64 2.7-6 -> 2.7-9 libc6-dev 2.7-6 -> 2.7-9 libc6-i686 2.7-6 -> 2.7-9 cpp-4.1 4.1.2-18 -> 4.1.2-19 foomatic-db-engine 3.0.2-20061031-1 -> 3.0.2-20080211-1 gcc-4.1 4.1.2-18 -> 4.1.2-19 gcc-4.1-base 4.1.2-18 -> 4.1.2-19 libgl1-mesa-dev 7.0.2-4 -> 7.0.3~rc2-1 libgl1-mesa-dri 7.0.2-4 -> 7.0.3~rc2-1 libgl1-mesa-glx 7.0.2-4 -> 7.0.3~rc2-1 libglu1-mesa 7.0.2-4 -> 7.0.3~rc2-1 libglu1-mesa-dev 7.0.2-4 -> 7.0.3~rc2-1 libgtkmm-2.4-1c2a 1:2.12.3-2 -> 1:2.12.5-2 libmudflap0-dev 4.1.2-18 -> 4.1.2-19 libpisock9 0.12.3-2 -> 0.12.3-4 mesa-common-dev 7.0.2-4 -> 7.0.3~rc2-1 tzdata 2007k-3 -> 2007k-4 udftools 1.0.0b3-12 -> 1.0.0b3-13.1 gnome-sharp2 2.16.1-1 -> 2.16.1-2 gnome-sharp2-examples 2.16.1-1 -> 2.16.1-2 libgnome-vfs2.0-cil 2.16.1-1 -> 2.16.1-2 libgnome2.0-cil 2.16.1-1 -> 2.16.1-2 gdm 2.20.3-2 -> 2.20.4-1 libglib2.0-0 2.14.6-1 -> 2.16.1-1 libglib2.0-dev 2.14.6-1 -> 2.16.1-1 libpango1.0-0 1.18.4-1 -> 1.20.0-1 libpango1.0-common 1.18.4-1 -> 1.20.0-1 xserver-xorg-core 2:1.4.1~git20080131-1 -> 2:1.4.1~git20080131-2 xserver-xorg-core-dbg 2:1.4.1~git20080131-1 -> 2:1.4.1~git20080131-2 xserver-xorg-video-nv 1:2.1.7-1 -> 1:2.1.8-1 $ uname -a Linux galaxy 2.6.24-1-686 #1 SMP Mon Feb 11 14:37:45 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux Best regards Tore -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
