Hi all,
After an upgrade to iceweasel 3 (i'm running sid), iceweasel crashed
like every a few minutes and it's just unusable. I managed to run
strace iceweasel and the following is the line before it crashed:

Hi all,
I'm running sid on two different machines. I just update/upgrade both
machines. However, I can run ps2pdf successful on one, but get error on the
other. The error I get is

Hi all Debian users,
Is there any command like nice so that I can run a command with a cpu
limit of at most x%? cpulimit is close to my need but it can't be
invoked like nice, i.e., put it before the command I want to run like
cpulimit -l 50 some_commands
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks!

I finally have the chance to look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log in recovery

Any more suggestion?
