--- Comment #27 from Robin Laing <me...@telusplanet.net> --- Bzi, comment 25 I use a USB keyboard and can Ctrl+Alt+Fx to the terminal. I usually use F5 out of years of habit. I hope your comment is a typo. Try to Ctrl+Alt+Fx before the lockup and see if that works. I have had some strange system pauses with media files from time to time and have no clue what is causing it. In some cases it seems that the machine has died when it hasn't. Do you have another computer to ssh into the "frozen" machine? I have used this to troubleshoot issues and to get out of complicated issues. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
