Re: Catastrophic machine freezes - X related

2020-03-08 Thread Justin Noor
You’re using tmux with or without X? We’re getting different errors. Thus far my errors are definitely X related. Coincidentally I was just working on this. My machine crashed, and my logs are showing: rwsleep_nsec: Xorg[98908]: fsleep: trying to sleep zero nanoseconds I’m looking into it as we

Yeah like Stuart said I need to reproduce the crash and get inside the machine when it’s in that state. To be continued. Best On Fri, Feb 28, 2020 at 7:42 PM Avon Robertson wrote: > On Sat, Feb 29, 2020 at 12:57:07AM +1000, Stuart Longland wrote: > > On 28/2/20 11:32 pm, Justin Noor wrote: > >

Thanks for offering to help and sorry for the delay - I got dragged into a work emergency. I finally managed to SCP my dmesg to a remote machine. As a refresher I have a 6.6 current machine that crashes when X is running, and almost instantly when Firefox is running - it runs fine without X. The

A full dmesg would certainly help. Also, do you see anything in /var/log/messages? On Mon, Jan 27, 2020 at 4:01 PM Justin Noor wrote: > > Hello community, > > I'm looking for any advice on how to troubleshoot some strange and > catastrophic behavior on my OpenBSD machine. Seemingly out of
