OpenSuse 11.3 64 bit seems to randomly hang.

Hi there all,

My machine seems to randomly hang, and I am not sure how to work out what is causing it. Are there some logs I can examine that may help me first that I can look at?

My mouse stops, keyboard stops and cpu monitor on screen doesn’t move so no idea if its some kind of X thing, os thing, or hardware.

Best Regards

posting your hardware specs might be a good place to start .

and if you are using KDE or Gnome ( i use gnome but kde is installed)

ahhh sorry about that,

Will this do? Smolt saved details

I have recently compiled and added drivers for the RALink 3062 wireless chipset but I am having problems with it, it seems to keep cutting out and being very slow

  1. what driver are you using for that gforce 9600 card and how did you install the driver

  2. KDE or Gnome ???
    there is a known KDE bug
    or some other desktop ?

I am using Gnome, and I installed the driver via the software manager in Yast, using the NVidia Repository at ftp://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/11.3/ its currently installed:
nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-desktop - version 260.19.12_k2.6.34.0_12-22.1
x11-video-nvidiaG02 - version 260.19.12.23-1
xorg-x11-driver-video-nouveau - version 0.0.15_20100401_bfb95cc-1.10
