I've restarted it and I've ssh'd into it and running top. That way if it freezes again I will have a CPU usage indication at the time of the freeze. This freeze may just be a coincidence. There is a known freeze-type bug in 64 bit FC3, which I've had a few times, but what bad timing ;-( Cheers Bill -- STRESS('stres)n: that confusion created when one's mind overrides the desire to choke the living daylights out of some jerk who really deserves it. http://www.maidment.com.au |
