Hi: Since I installed in my home computer with processor : "model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E4400 @ 2.00GHz" , Fedora 9 - both 32 and 64 bit version, my machine crashes all of a sudden, or as it happened right now, while I use Free Cell Solitaire, there is no way to access the display screen. The computer mus be shut down. The following lines are taken from /var/log/messages.

I'm not sure if it is related to the main problem. --------------------- Init Begin ------------------------ **Unmatched Entries** tty4 main process (2776) killed by TERM signal tty5 main process (2777) killed by TERM signal ........ (idem) ........ ........ ---------------------- Init End ------------------------- It should be added that in the same computer I have Fedora 8 and when I boot with it there is no problem. Any advice, whatsoever, could be a great help F Nunez -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
