Description Tim 2007-11-10 14:01:54 UTC
Description of problem:
It just crashes, everything freezes, and there is no way to get out of it, mouse
and keyboard freeze too.

How reproducible:
I just use my PC and it randomly happens.
Once while maximizing a window, once while typing, while playing music, or video
as well. None of them seem to have any reason. The first time I had to reset the
bios.

I'm running a Intel Dual Core Processor, but I am running in 32 bit so it
shouldnt be an issue .

The only programs I have been running each time this occurs are Konversation,
nm-applet and firefox most of the time.

Are there any crash logs I could take a look at or anything? It could be a
hardware error, but I have had no such errors in the last week while running
ubuntu, and it only started while Fedora was running.

Sorry, however for what component are you reporting?
Perhaps you want to ask your problem on Fedora mailing first.

The output of lsmod might be interesting too, if you have some
not-very-often-tested hardware.

Comment 7 Jon Stanley 2008-01-17 00:47:06 UTC
Hello Tim,

Have you had a chance to ge tthe output of lsmod as requested by Dave in commnet
#6?  If I don't here anything in one month, I'll close this bug as
INSUFFICIENT_DATA. 

Comment 8 Christopher Brown 2008-02-04 00:23:59 UTC
Its been two months. Closing as per comment #7. Please re-open if the problem
re-occurs. Thanks for taking the time to file the bug initially.

Sorry for the inactivity, the cause was fault nVidia drivers.
