I directly went into my /usr/portage/distfiles/svn-src/enlightenment/evas folder and made a svn info. For me, this freezing comes 2 to 4 times a day and I'm not doing anything special, just working on NetBeans and VirtualBox. I'll try to get some information from /var/log/messages or dmesg next

Hello, It freezed one more time... This time I took time to check dmesg. The only strange thing I see that may be the cause is the following line : BUG : unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0020 Does that speak to someone ? I'm using kernel 2.6.34-r1. Thanks Best regards,
