hi,
No this problem doesn't occur in win 98 which i dual boot. and also this
doesn't seem to be related to system load in general. Because it can occur
in the first few mins of booting also. but the thing is that it
occurs in X only. I may be running only a single application or multiples.
If I don't start X my machine does't have any problems. neither in finnds
or compiles. :(
I have been running icewm for 2 days now and no problems. I will
wait it to hang in icewm too before proceeding with the suggestions given
by all of you.
Regards,
Mukhben
