Hi all,
I have a knoppix 5.1 Hd install on my pc. My problem is Firefox, VLC, kaffeine and KDM are crashing often while I'm working and its really irritating.
I think most packages from the Debian Testing ( Etch) group.
Did anyone experience the same problem? How do we fix these?
my pc configuration :
Amd duron 800 Mhz,
512 MB ram,
64kb cache.
Waiting for your responses.
Thanks in advance
That's interesting, I don't see them crash on a regular Debian Etch install. I wonder if there is anything to be learned from that.
Do you think its a problem with the hardware? I had used knoppix 5.0 earlier and it was very much stable even though all packages were from the Debian Testing group.Quote:

Can you suggest how I can look for the errors and how to interpret the log files?
I certainly can't rule out hardware problems with your computer. One obvious thing to try would be to boot up a Knoppix disc and type in memtest at the boot prompt. But if Debian works fine on the computer and installed Knoppix keep crashing then I suspect the OS that isn't really intened for installing to hard disk. On the other hand, if Debian crashed too then that give more knowledge.
