<font color="black" face="Verdana,Arial,Helvetica" size="2"><font color="black" face="Verdana,Arial,Helvetica" size="2"><font color="#660066">> Does the computer ever lockup for anyone else? Every once in a while <br>> myth will cause my computer to freeze hard: all shells die, no
<br>> input is <br>> processed, and the CPU fan kicks in suggesting that the usage is <br>> spiking. The only thing that will illicit a response is a ping. <br>> <br>> This happens when doing seemingly mundane stuff; setting a recording,
<br>> browing channels, other normal activity. It only happens in the TV <br>> watching module. Is there any way to diagnose this? I am pretty sure <br>> it's not a hardware problem but I'm willing to entertain the idea.
<br>> I am <br>> able to deal with this but I am not the only user of the TV and I <br>> can't <br>> offer a solution for this house that randomly requires rebooting, <br>> fscking, and mysql database repair. Suggestions?
<br>> <br>> Jesse.<br><br><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">I had similar problems that I think were related to the X server. I got a hard freeze that would not respond to anything. After upgrading to a recent nvidia driver (9742) and inserting the proper modeline in my X config file, the problem is gone.
