From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2) Gecko/20021204 Description of problem: I am on an IBM iSeries ThinkPad. I'll just be innocently using the system and then the keyboard and mouse will lock up. The rest of the system doesn't appear to stop working (pages finish loading, etc), but those become irrelevant as I cant use them. The fix for this is to reboot as I can't control alt backspace. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: I am unsure. They arbitrarily come up. Additional info:
Can you attach your X log file and X config file from after a crash, prior to starting up X again? Also your /var/log/messages file.
Created attachment 88751 [details] Abbreviated message file Attaching the message file which was requested. This is slightly abbreviated, as I deleted a few lines from it (old). As a note, this 1.1MB more of the Dec 14 18:12:38 kbreit kernel: ide-scsi: (IO,CoD) != (0,1) while issuing a packet command Dec 14 18:12:38 kbreit kernel: hdc: ATAPI reset complete. A lot of it is still intact, but I pulled a lot of it as well.
Created attachment 88752 [details] My XF86 log file
I should note that the attachments weren't from a lockup which the bug describes. However, the keyboard stopped working, the mouse didn't. It was similar behavior, so I'm wondering if the attached files could give a clue or four.
To troubleshoot a crash problem, it helps to have logs _from_ the crash. This doesn't look like an XFree86 problem to me at any rate. It's either a kernel issue, a hardware issue, or some odd mix of unsupported drivers or something perhaps. Reassigning to kernel component for comment.
Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists. The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
