It seems rather unlikely that Freeciv would have anything to do with such a crash.

I disagree. Freeciv 2.1.8 windowed GTK client froze me out of my Windows Vista system the other day, while playing multiplayer. Mouse pointer simply stopped responding. I was shocked. I had to hard reboot. I have no other history of freezes on my system. Could it be some kind of GTK deadlock? Other thing that happens in GTK, with 100% predictability, is after it's been running a long time the GUI windows start painting garbage. About 10 seconds later the app freezes. Vista terminates this just fine, it's pretty much gotten to be a routine. I have no exact reproducer for the problem though, so I haven't filed a bug report. Something is definitely unhealthy in GTK land though. Some kind of resource leak. Cheers, Brandon Van Every ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

Sorry, i really doubt that freeciv could crash your system... in fact, it crashes very often but not the whole system... ;-) Either your OS has some serious problems or you have faulty hardware...
