Then after many things get killed and then the computer hangs and only huge amount of harddisk activity is "seen" X server gets hang and keyboard and all is frozen.. then I reboot and read the systemlog and see all this messages. Someone any clue about what is cousing this? It has happend 2 times in about 2 months. During the last crash there was running nothing special, netscape, some fts and the usual services.
